Comoros and Uganda will seek to get one over each other when they face off in an international friendly matchup at Stade de Marrakech on Friday evening.
Both teams are in good form heading into this one with Comoros unbeaten in four matches, while Uganda go in search of a third consecutive victory.
Match preview
Comoros maintained their perfect World Cup qualifying record with a 1-0 triumph over the Black Stars of Ghana at Stade de Moroni on November 21.
Stefano Cusin's men opened the scoring two minutes shy of half time through Myziane Maolida before putting on a solid defensive display at the other end to hold on to their advantage.
That was a third straight win for Les Coelacantes, who remain without defeat since crashing out of the group stage of the COSAFA Cup back in July.
Coming up next is the task of facing off against an opposing outfit with a 100% record in this fixture, having won both of the previous two editions.
Having found the back of the net seven times across their last three outings, Comoros will be looking to enjoy another field day in front of goal.
Uganda were far too strong for Kuwait as they ran out comfortable 2-0 winners when the sides faced off at the Cairo International Stadium on January 19.
Paul Put's men got their noses in front early on thanks to Ronald Ssekiganda's opener before Alex Kitata put the result beyond doubt five minutes from time.
Consequently, the Cranes have now secured back to back wins for the first time since 2022 and now go in search of three victories on the spin.
In the first of two warm-up outings before their World Cup qualifying journey resumes in June, Uganda will be keen to continue their recent upturn in form.
