SUPL Arua Hill, Gadaffi encounter promises to go all the way
Their recent on-field battles paint a story of close encounters. Cumulatively, of the four encounters, Gaddafi has the upper hand with two wins to their name, Arua Hill secured one victory, and the remaining match concluded in a deadlock.
The striker will be available for selection after the Kitara match, with a home tie against NEC FC providing the perfect platform for a return.
In Kankonde’s absence, the Kasasiro Boys have struggled for form and are already nine points off the pace in the title race.
The striker had a fallout with head coach Sergio Traguil after reportedly refusing to play in the FUFA Super 8 Tournament third-place playoff with SC Villa.
