Sunrise FC head coach Jackson Mayanja admits his eyes are set on posing a major upset on APR when the pair face off in the Primus National League at Nyagatare Stadium on Wednesday.
APR are unbeaten in the league so far this season and Mayanja admits it will be tough to beat the army side. However, the Ugandan gaffer insists his men are determined to upset Thierry Froger’s side just like they did during Sunday’s goalless draw against Kiyovu.
"APR is a big team, we are going to approach it differently than we did against Kiyovu," Mayanja told the press ahead of the game.
"The mood in the camp is good. The players are acting more professional, something which was lacking a little bit before I came. We are gaining momentum; the confidence is coming back."

Mayanja, however, pointed out that shortage in squad depth could trigger his side’s search for results in the league.
"The only problem is we have a small squad and I always have to play around that group and see how it goes generally," he said.
Sunrise FC are 14th on the league table with 10 points whereas APR are 2nd with 22 points.
