BUL vs Express Prediction: Hosts hoping to keep title hopes alive

FUFA Technical Centre will be the venue for this round 24 Uganda Premier League game between BUL and Express. The last time these sides met was in the Uganda Cup round ⅛, a match BUL won on penalties. How will the two teams respond?

BUL will come here hoping to keep their hope chances alive in the league. The last time they played, the host took on Kampala City in the quarterfinal of the Uganda Cup, and they won that game on penalties after the regular time had ended in a 1-1 draw. However, the host's last league game was against the Wakiso Giants, in which they won 3-0. Off to this game, BUL is seated 3rd spot in the league standings with 43 points, pulling off 29 goals and conceding 16 in that run.

Express got back to winning ways last time against URA SC in early April, and in this one, they will look to keep things running. Isaac Wagoina's 43rd-minute goal proved to be the difference in that game, as it won Express the game. However, prior encounters to that win did see Express go four consecutive games without a win. In that run, express lost to BUL, Villa SC, Wakiso Giants, and Maroons.

In their last five meetings, Express won three, while two ended in draws. However, their last game saw BUL win on penalties after full-time had finished 1-1.

Express have been a tough side in this fixture, and in this one, they will look to show their superiority. However, BUL has been excellent this season, and they are in pursuit of the league title. This game is important for BUL, and I expect them to do their best. Take the hosts to win in what should be a close, low-scoring game.
