Kampala Capital City Authority Football Club (KCCA FC) manager Mike Mutebi has named his starting eleven for the Caf Champions League clash with African champions, Mamelodi Sundowns this evening.
Benjamin Ochan remains in goals while Timothy Awany, Habib Kavuma and skipper Denis Okot play from the center back to right back – Isaac Kirabira, Brian Majwega, Joseph Ochaya and Muzamiru Mutyaba retain their positions in midfield.
Paul Mucereezi, who did not play the last time out due to illness, will be playing in midfield against Sundowns in place of Ivan Ntege who starts on the bench.
Teenage sensation Allan Okello, who will be making his first start in the continental showpiece starts upfront alongside Geoffrey Sserunkuma to deliver goals.
The first leg of the first round encounter ended in a 2-1 home win to Sundowns, who could have won by a larger margin after having scored two early goals while also enjoying several further chances to score. Geoffrey Sserunkuma netted midway through the second half to give the Ugandans a crucial away goal, which means a 1-0 win in Kampala on Saturday would see them knocking out the defending champions.
KCCA XI: Ocan, Okot, Kavuma, Awany, Ochaya, Mutyaba, Kirabira, Mucureezi, Okello, Majwega, Serukuuma.
Subs: Lukwago, Musamali, Ntege, Masiko, Akinyemi Sentongo, Kayizzi
