Guinea, meanwhile, head into the match after a frustrating goalless draw against Somalia. Despite dominating possession, Guinea failed to break down the resilient Somali defense, with goalkeeper Abdirahman Mohamud Jama putting in a heroic performance to deny them a victory.

The draw left Guinea in third place with seven points, just one ahead of Uganda.

With both teams desperate for a win, Tuesday’s match promises to be intense. Uganda will look to capitalize on home advantage and an expected strong turnout at Namboole.

Head coach Paul Put has emphasized the importance of mental resilience and sharpness in front of goal, while captain Khalid Aucho has called on fans to rally behind the team.

The Cranes will be wary of Guinea’s attacking threats but will take confidence in the fact that the visitors struggled to score against Somalia.

At the same time, Uganda must address their defensive frailties, particularly after conceding directly from a corner against Mozambique.

A win for Uganda would see them leapfrog Guinea in the standings and boost their chances in the tight Group G race. However, another setback could leave them with a mountain to climb in the qualification campaign.

Kickoff is set for 7 PM at Namboole, with Uganda aiming to restore their confidence and reignite their World Cup dream.
