KCCA FC manager Mike Mutebi believes it is never going to be a walk in the park for the Kasasiro boys.
He said ;
“It’s going to be tricky but i believe we have enough to negotiate the challenge. So it’s not going to be a walk in the park but in the end, expect a very good match”. He asserted during the pre match press conference at Lugogo.
The overall winner will proceed to the group stages of this year’s CAF Champions League.
