Following his third coming at KCCA FC, Mustafa Kizza has been listed in the first eleven as the latter entertain arch-nemesis Express FC in a hugely anticipated Uganda Premier League bout.

The Kasasiro Boys face the Red Eagles at the MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo hoping to bounce back from their previous home defeat to Maroons FC.

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

KCCA head coach had in a recent media interview, hinted at an imminent debut for Kizza, and it has now come to pass.

"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."

It should be noted that Kizza is a KCCA academy graduate, who previously departed for professional stints in Canada and Portugal over respective spells.

His last game for KCCA came last season (in a short-term) against rivals Vipers SC at the St Mary's Stadium, Kitende, which the latter won 1-0, to eventually clinch the championship.

Meanwhile, Traguil also confirmed captain Julius Poloto (injury), goalkeeper Anthony Emojong (shoulder) and forward Emmanuel Loki (family issues) would not feature.
