The first of their two matches in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers will take place on Friday at the Suez Canal Stadium in neutral Egypt.
With just one point from their first two games, the Cranes are last in Group F. In their first match, they lost to Algeria 2-0 and played Niger to a 1-1 draw.
Milton Karisa, a winger, gave them the lead just before the break, but Mahamadou Sabo scored an equalizer for the visitors midway through the second half, forcing a draw.
For this month’s doubleheader, head coach Milutin Sredojevi has selected 27 players, including Emmanuel Okwi, their most prolific scorer with 28 goals.
The team also includes four uncapped players, including Dundee United forward Sadat Anaku.
Tanzania has as many points as Uganda thanks to their own draw with Niger, but they missed out on more after losing to Algeria 2-0.
The Taifa stars have selected 30 players for their upcoming matches, hoping to resurrect their campaign. Mbwana Samatta, a Genk forward, has scored 22 goals in 69 games, more than Mrisho Ngassa (25) has ever scored in the country’s history. He will try to get closer to setting a new record.

Uganda vs Tanzania Prediction :
The two groups have battled in their last couple of games and all the more critically, there’s an absence of certified quality in their positions.
It’s possible that the game will end in a draw, despite the fact that both teams will want to win for the first time this season.
Prediction: Uganda 1-1 Tanzania
Uganda vs Tanzania Head to Head :
This will be the teams’ 60th meeting. Uganda has won 32 out of the last 59 games, losing only 12 times. In September 2022, Tanzania and Uganda played a friendly match, which the Taifa Stars won 1-0 to end a streak of three consecutive losses.
Tanzania has only won two of their last six games, both friendly matches (3-1 against Central African Republic and 1-0 against Uganda), and has only kept one clean sheet.
Uganda has lost six times and won just one of their last 13 games, a 1-0 loss to Senegal in the 2022 African Nations Championship.
Uganda vs Tanzania Team News :
Over the past few years, Uganda’s impressive play has led to an increase in their Fifa World Rankings. The national team is ranked 89th globally right now. In the ten games they have played in all competitions, they have only lost two times, and they almost never give up goals, which is a problem for any opponent.
On paper, Tanzania’s national team is much weaker and currently ranks 130th in the world. They had a few decent exhibitions last year yet their latest games were an enormous frustration. In addition, they have not played since September, whereas their rivals have already played a number of official matches this year, which should present a challenge prior to this match.
