At this stage last season, Express had picked up just two points from as many games.
Forward to 2016/17, The Red Eagles are on four points, just two adrift of early pacesetters KCCA.
The six time league winners have won and drawn once against Lweza and Proline respectively giving Coach Alex Gitta something nice to smile about.
“We would love to have maximum points at this stage,” he told Kawowo Sports after a stalemate with Proline. “But I take the four given we had two less at this point last season,” he added.

Gitta, who is assisted by Wasswa Bbosa and Douglas Bamweyana, was also impressed by his club’s second half show on Tuesday rallying from behind to salvage a point against Proline at Lugogo.
The biggest positive from the draw with Proline was the character the boys showed in the second half. Against Lweza, our performance in the second half was poor but that improved on Tuesday.
Express’ next opponent lies in newcomers, Onduparaka who visit Wankulukuku on league resumption on Tuesday September 6, 2016.
