The Masengere Group promises fireworks this Sunday, August 31, as Mawokota welcomes Bugerere in a clash that could make or break quarterfinal dreams.
Mawokota, sitting precariously in third place with 12 points from eight outings, enter the tie knowing only one result keeps their hopes alive, victory.
Anything less, and they’ll be left chasing survival through the unpredictable route of the best runners-up.
On the other hand, Bugerere, perched second on 14 points, only need three points to seal their own passage to the last eight.
The tension surrounding the fixture is amplified by the lurking threat of Kyadondo.
Level on goal difference and trailing Mawokota by just three points, Kyadondo could leapfrog them with a win over Bulemeezi if Mawokota slip up.
Ssese currently lead the third-place slot with 15 points, leaving both Mawokota and Kkooki playing catch-up.
In Masengere’s other contests, Buweekula face Buvuma at Mubende NTC with their eyes firmly on sealing quarterfinal qualification.
Action will also be intense in the Muganzirwazza Group. Ssingo travel to Kyaggwe needing a win to punch their ticket to the next stage, while Kkooki face Mawogola in a must-win duel to keep their campaign alive.
Success for Ssingo would elevate them to 16 points, while victory for Kkooki would haul them to 15 — potentially enough to grab the second-best runners-up slot.
