There are past experiences too albeit those that has counted in Uganda\u2019s favour.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have reminded them about the game against Tanzania (first round qualifier for the cancelled 2021 U-17 World Cup) too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe lost 2-1 away but won 5-0 at home to qualify. There is no reason why we should believe that Kenya will not do the same,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Fitness concerns<\/p>\n<p>Uganda also go into the encounter concerned about the fitness of midfielder Shakirah Nyinagahirwa, who has struggled with an ankle injury this week.<\/p>\n<p>More to that, the U-20s, who were still at Fufa Technical Centre &#8211; Njeru by yesterday morning, have had no opportunity to train in Kitende but Khalifa and captain Fauzia Najjemba are making no excuses.<\/p>\n<p>This tourney has seen several budding stars. The winner of this tie plays the winner in the match between South Africa and Mozambique in the third qualification round.
