The two sides will be desperate to bag a win after defeats in their opening matches
KCCA were beaten 2-0 at home by NEC while Express lost 1-0 to hosts BUL in Njeru.
“We don’t have any other option but go there and win because we lost the first game. We know what we need and shall do our best,” said Ssenyondo.
The gaffer, given the target to winning the Lugogo based club their first title in over eight years also tasks his boys to put up a good show.

“There are two things; performance and result. When you have a guaranteed performance, it guarantees you of future results.
Sometimes you get a result, when the performance is not right, then results become hard to get there after so we have to balance both,” he explained.
The gaffer couldn’t hide the disappointment suffered on match day one but says setbacks are part of the game but how you react is more important.
“We were disappointed last time and we want to use setbacks as a springboard to succeed this season. The setback we got last week has only informed us of what we need to do to move forward.”
KCCA will be without striker Emmanuel Anyama, youngster Yian Gatbel, Gabonese Axel Mezui while latest signing Ibrahim Kasule is not yet fully fit as per Ssenyondo and so could be used as a substitute.
