Express FC recently played to a 1-1 draw against Bright Stars in their latest league encounter. The first half of the match concluded without any goals, but Isaac Wagoina scored for Express just two minutes into the second half. Unfortunately, Express conceded a goal 7 minutes before the end of regular time, with Ashraf Mulindi securing a point for Bright Stars. As Express approaches their upcoming match, it's noteworthy that they have not secured a victory in their last three matches, suffering two losses and settling for a draw in one.
UPDF
UPDF encountered another struggle in their recent match against NEC FC, where they were unable to secure a victory. Bashir Kabuye initially gave UPDF the lead with a goal in the 41st minute, providing them with an advantage at halftime. Nevertheless, Marvin Kavuma equalized for NEC FC from the penalty spot, and Rwothomio Cromwell scored in the 65th minute to put NEC FC in the lead. Despite UPDF's relentless efforts, they managed to level the scores in the 72nd minute, with Bashir Kabuye scoring his second goal from the penalty spot. However, with this draw, UPDF's winless streak extends to 13 matches. They currently hold the 15th position out of 16 teams in the standings, having earned only 10 points from 18 matches.
