National league leaders Atraco Fc are confident about their chances when take on Kibuye this afternoon (1300 hours) in the quarter-finals of this year’s Amahoro Cup at Nyamirambo stadium.
Jean-Marie Ntagwabira’s side will be hot favorites to progress to the semifinal after seeing off Union Fc11-0 at the last round.
Speaking to Times Sport yesterday Ntagwabira said that nothing will stop his side from knocking out Kibuye to reach the semi final stage.
"I have a well organized squad which is on form this season. We want to win the Amahoro Cup title so as to be assured of participating in next year’s continental competitions (Confederation Cup).
"We have a few minor injuries to think about but the available players have more than what it requires to see off Kibuye,” Ntagwabira said.
Ntagwabira is set to replace injured Michael Sebalinga with Alimansi Kadogo while former Kibuye defender Charles Kawuma will start in for Tom Semwogerere who is nursing a shin bruise.
The last time both sides met in the national football league in April, Kibuye held Atraco to a one-all draw at Gatwaro stadium.
