Bar-Okoro Stadium will be the stage for an exciting clash as Kigezi HomeBoyz FC travel to face Paidha Black Angels SC in the FUFA Big League Today (Sunday) afternoon.
The match offers the Gorillas a chance to bounce back after a goalless stalemate against Onduparaka FC last week. A victory could propel Kigezi HomeBoyz FC further up the table as the first round draws to a close.
We head into the fixture ranked 11th with 12 points, having registered 3 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses in the season so far. Meanwhile, Paidha Black Angels SC are 7th with 13 points, their unbeaten home record serving as a strong statement of intent.
Key Focus Points
Tomorrow’s match is an opportunity for the Gorillas to break Paidha Black Angels’ solid home record and silence their vibrant fan base. It will also be a test of our resilience against Paidha’s attacking duo of Benjamin Opakrwoth (#11) and Jacob Opar (#7), who pose significant threats with their pace and skill down the wings.
Our defense, however, is prepared, with Beinomugisha Timothy and Ndajizimana Karim fit and ready to neutralize their threats.
