FUFA BIG LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 22
The Date: April 19, 2025
The Contest: Kataka FC vs. Kigezi HomeBoyz FC
The Time: 4:00 PM
The Venue: Mbale City Stadium
Still navigating a tight relegation battle, Kigezi HomeBoyz FC will this evening visit Kataka FC in what could be a season-defining clash at Mbale City Stadium.
The Gorillas currently sit 12th on the log with 22 points from 20 matches, having registered 5 wins, 7 draws, and 8 losses. We’ve scored 15 goals and conceded 18. Kataka FC, meanwhile, are two places above in 10th, on 24 points, scoring 16 goals and conceding 19.
Kataka FC are coming off a 2-0 defeat to Kaaro Karungi FC. They too are desperate for a turnaround and will view this fixture as an opportunity to move further from the drop zone.
Victory today would not only lift spirits in the camp but also significantly boost our survival hopes — especially if we go on to win all remaining home games.
Our away form this season has been disappointing, with only one win on the road, which came against Arua Hill SC. In the entire second round, we’ve managed to collect just a single point away from home and found the back of the net only once. Overall, we’ve scored a mere four goals on our travels all season and have conceded in every away game this season.
Coach Pritchard Speaks:
“I am confident. It’s an honour to work with the boys even today. Please trust us — we will do our best.”
On the injury crisis at the club.
“The injuries are a concern, but we have other players who can win us the game. They can put the ball in the back of the net. We have a game plan we just need to execute it.”
Team News:
Playmaker Charles Waibi is out with a knee gash. He’s a major doubt even for the next fixture.
Denis Alioni and Elia Asiimwe are nursing knee injuries.
Allan Egaku misses out due to bereavement following the passing of his father. The Club extends heartfelt condolences and wishes him strength during this difficult time.
