Under the floodlights of Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo, Express FC and Police will clash in a crucial Uganda Premier League encounter as both sides seek redemption following recent setbacks.

The Red Eagles, still reeling from a shock 1-0 defeat to newly promoted Lugazi, are eager to bounce back in front of their home fans.

Meanwhile, Police, who fell to Vipers SC by the same scoreline, find themselves in a precarious position just six points above the relegation zone.

Express’ last home game showcased their attacking firepower, with a resounding 4-1 victory over Wakiso Giants.

Striker Samuel Ssenyonjo was the star of the show, netting a hat-trick to take his season tally to 11 goals. If he continues his fine form, he could find himself at the top of the goal-scoring charts before Allan Okello plays on Friday.

With the return of key players Khassim Hafizi and Ssenfuma Steven from injury, Express will be at full strength, ready to capitalise on their home advantage.

For Police, this match presents a golden opportunity to widen the gap between themselves and the relegation zone.

Their resilience has been evident this season, having lost just five league matches, a record bettered only by Vipers, NEC, and BUL.

However, their inability to turn draws into wins has kept them closer to the bottom than they would like. Simon Peter Mugerwa’s men showed flashes of promise in their narrow defeat to Vipers and will be looking to build on that performance.

Historically, this fixture has produced high-scoring encounters, with an average of over three goals per game in the last 11 meetings.

The reverse fixture ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw, with Isaac Ogwang’s late equaliser rescuing a point for the Cops.

However, Police has not beaten Express since their emphatic 6-1 victory in 2020. They will need to overcome that psychological barrier if they are to claim a much-needed victory.

With both teams desperate for three points, expect an intense battle under the Nakivubo lights.

Will Express use their firepower to reignite their top-four ambitions, or will Police snatch a crucial away win to ease their relegation worries? The answers will unfold under the night sky.
