And, Kizza could be in line to guide his side to what would be a soothing victory on home turf.

"Regarding Kizza, let's see what happens in training today," said head coach Sergio Traguil to the press on Monday

"And we'll see if he's adapting to the systems especially the defensive and attacking transitions," the Portuguese tactician added.

"He is a very intelligent player, that I can tell you, we'll see if he's fit to make the 18-man squad or contribute to the game."

Meanwhile, Traguil has confirmed captain Julius Poloto and goalkeeper Anthony Emojong will not feature due to respective injuries.

"Captain Julius Poloto has some problems within the knee, he was sacrificing himself for the team towards Abu Salim and got injured," Traguil noted.

"Then, we also have Anthony Emojong who has a problem with his shoulders and that's why he's not been playing yet he is a young talented goalkeeper."

KCCA lost 1-0 in their opening league fixture against BUL FC, and will have to make an instant bounce back against the Luzira-based outfit.
