Paidha Black Angels SC travelled to Jinja to take on Gaddafi FC in one of their three remaining games of the tournament with only the hope of winning the tie.
Paidha Black Angels are currently at the bottom of the Elgon group table with 5 points and 8 points behind Mbale Heroes FC and Calvary FC.
This implies that if Paidha Black Angels SC fails to win the game against Gaddafi FC they will remain on 6 points and they won’t be able to catch up with the next ranked teams irrespective of wins in the other matches remaining.
Gadafi FC is currently in the 3rd position n the Elgon group table level with second-placed Blacks Power FC and 3 points behind table leaders Arua Hill SC.
So Paidha Black Angels SC will play a must-win game against Gaddafi FC to increase their chances of survival.
They have travelled without their key player, defender Odagiu Khalidi who misses out due to a thigh injury.
SSonko Ronald and Shaban Farouk are back in the squad after missing out in their previous games.
