Arua Hill SC will be aiming to get back to winning ways when they play host to table leaders KCCA Fc on Friday at Barifa Stadium, Arua in match day 7 of the StarTimes Uganda Premier League.
The leopards started their maiden top flight campaign on an impressive note with a 2-0 statement victory over Express Fc but have since failed to maintain their momentum collecting only one win from their last four league games ( 3-2 home win over Ura FC)
Arua Hill, meanwhile ,will be looking to bounce back after suffering a 1-0 loss to Gaddafi Football Club on Friday, 19th November at Gaddafi Arena.
Head Coach Sadiq Ssempigi and his technical bench will need to conjure up something impressive in order to get something from the table leaders who are still unbeaten and have collected 16 points from 6 games.
“Ofcourse we have tried to look at why we couldn’t get results in the last previous games we didn’t play to our best so we have been working on some of the points which didn’t move well some of the sense of organisation are been calmed. so we have prepared to the best such that we get result tomorrow,”
“So we think it is a game which is very important to us everyone in the group is aware players and we hope to put a change, we hope to show reaction from the previous game,”
“I think the key factor could be togetherness, working as team all our trainings have been based on that, working as a team, working as a group to make sure everyone puts up the effort to win the game. We need every player to be at his best and we hope when we work as team I think we shall get a better result tomorrow.”
“We lost the game to Gadafi whereby we didn’t perform well everyone didn’t give in his best we think it’s a turn around it’s turn we want to make a real turn of the result cause we’re badly off we think that tomorrow’s game is very important when we pick maximum point.”
“We need maximum points tomorrow and everyone at the team is aware of that and everyone is ready to respond to that.” Arua Hill Head Coach Sadiq Ssempigi said as quoted by aruahillsc.ug
On the other hand , KCCA FC will look to continue their sublime form against Arua and head into this encounter on the back of a 2-1 win over Updf in their last league outing.
"We have come to Arua to maintain our good run. We want to pick maximum points against Arua Hill. We know the kind of threat they possess and the experience they have in their squad. Such games need top focus and we have told the players that they need to be alert for 90 minutes and take their chances. They (Arua Hill) have a good coach in Mbabazi Livingston who I played with and also a former player of KCCA. We need to manage the game quite well and take our chances. Such games are decided by small margins and we have informed the players to be clinical infront of goal."-Morley Byekwaso told the club's official website.
