MYDA FC head coach Musafiri Abdul Samadu has confirmed that their topscorer Ibra Nsimbe will be back on Wednesday 17th February when the Flying Eagles take on Uganda Revenue Authority Football Club (URA FC) at the King George IV Memorial Stadium, Tororo.

Musafiri says there will be only one change in the team that started in the 1-0 loss to Sports Club Villa during their last outing.

“Expect only one change in the team that started against SC Villa because the team played very well,” he said in the pre-match press conference.

“Our top scorer Ibra Nsimbe has fully recovered from the injury he substained during the Vipers match and will be back up front for us tomorrow,” he added.

Musafiri acknowledges that URA FC is wounded after losing their first game of the season, but he believes his side is more prepared and motivated than the tax collectors.

“URA are like wounded buffaloes right now because they suffered their first loss of the season against Express. I know URA are going to come here seeking to bounce back but also us, we need to win at home after losing our last two games, all away from home.”

“I believe we are more prepared to take maximum points tomorrow because the boys are motivated, in a good shape and mood ahead of the game.”

The Tororo-based side are one of the four teams yet to win a single point in the Uganda Premier League this season, garnering just a draw against Mbarara City in their opening six games.

On the otherhand, their opponents on Wednesday, URA FC sit fifth on the log with 11 points garnered in six games.
