NEC and Vipers SC face off at the MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo on Tuesday with either side seeking victory to progress to the semi-finals.

The first leg at St. Mary’s stadium, Kitende on Friday ended in a goalless draw although the visiting side dominating but not creating enough.

The Venoms could again be without head coach Nikola Kavazovic who missed the first leg with a bout of malaria.

Allan Okello, Kenneth Kimera and Milton Karisa will be in search for goals with Hilary Mukundane and the rest keeping things at the back.

For the hosts who must score to advance to the semi-finals, they will hope the new signings Paul Mucureezi, Muzamir Mutyaba and the like are lethal.

A goalless draw will see take the tie to penalties while a score draw will send the Venoms to the last four.

In the latter fixture, KCCA will host Kitara at 8pm with the Kasasiro seeking to overturn a first leg deficit.
