It has been a very interesting and competitive FUFA beach soccer league campaign so far, and no sooner are we over the shocks of last weekend than we are into another with eight intriguing matches scheduled to take place on Sunday.
MS Sand Lions surprised almost everyone by beating St. Lawrence University and Buganda Royal before Grace Church who are yet to win a game pulled off a master performance to hold the latter.
For this outing at FUFA technical centre in Njeru, there will be plenty of attention on the top half of the table as five teams in the top six are in action, giving us three matches against themselves.
Defending champions St. Lawrence missed a host of their key players last time out and looked depleted – suffering a defeat at the hands of the Lions from Makindye and losing their top spot to Mutoola as a result. MUBS, currently sitting sixth on the log stands in their way this weekend, with another tricky side in Kiringente also on their schedule later.
Mutoola returned to the top of the pile with a ninth win from eleven matches and will go head to head with MS Sand Lions. The giant killers have been folding opponents of recent to scale up to the fifth place in the standings but their sturdiness will be tested against the play offs hopefuls.
After failing to make ends meet last weekend, Jinja Lions dropped to the third place and they will be seeking to keep their play offs dream alive this time when they meet KJT and MUBS.
The Sand Kings and MUBS will finally meet, their first face off this season. The first round fixture between the sides was not played because the last mentioned failed to report for the match even when it was rescheduled.
