This could be an interesting match as Maroons have their presumed home advantage while Wakiso Giants are ahead 1 point in the Premier League table.
It's no vacation for neither Maroons nor Wakiso Giants as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on sand pitch and that the visiting Wakiso Giants have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on sand pitch is 0-0-3 (win-draw-loss) from three matches.
Maroons form and stats
3 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That’s what Maroons have to build on here at Luzira Maximum Prisons Stadium in the Premier League.
The home team returns to Luzira Maximum Prisons Stadium after sharing the points with Jinja SSS (placed 7th) on their last time out; the Premier League game ended 1-1. 2-2 away at Express FC before that.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Maroons as they are travelling to their away game against Proline in the Premier League. That match is four days after this one.
Maroons has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 6 matches. 7 goals have been conceded.
Wakiso Giants form and stats
There's been little loot from Wakiso Giants's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 7 away games in the Premier League. Wakiso Giants only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.
It's the second away game in a row for Wakiso Giants, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus Kyetume (placed 9th) in the Premier League last time out. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Jinja SSS.
The visitors have scored 5 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Wakiso Giants have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.
