Striker Seiri Arigumaho will be the player on the horizon before the Mbarara City enthusiasts, when the Ankole Lions take on visiting BUL FC in the Star Times Uganda Premier League match this evening at Kakyeka Stadium.
The prolific striker who signed for the Jinja-based giants from the Kakyeka side, will be looking to impress his new masters, but against his former employers, just like he did last season (October 2, 2024), when his double strike sunk the Jinja side in Mbarara City's 2-0 historical win.

And almost a year now, Arigumaho returns in a different jersey but for the same individual player mission, impressing before his new enthusiasts but painfully in the face of his old cohorts.
But such is football and it is world over that players that score against their old clubs, do not make cerebrations, this in respect and how Arigumaho meets his challenge at hand, will depend on coach Abbey Bogere Kikomeko's technical decision for his starting 11.

Simon Mugerwa's boys are from a 1-0 loss at home to perennial tormentors UPDF and at Kakyeka Stadium courtesy of a late Samuel Kayongo Ssekamate, before the international break.
Now leading striker Henry Kitegenyi will be up to a task of leading the side to their maiden win in the now new format league, that will see the competition divided into two parts of the table for the bottom 8 and top 8 at the end of this regular 15-games round.

New man Mugerwa must have updated his notes in time before today's game, which comes as another test for the Lions' den protection ability, following the failed UPDF raid.
