URA SC

URA SC played Kataka in their last game, coming in the Uganda Cup, and lost on penalties. However, their last league contest was against BUL, and they lost 2-1 at home. In that encounter, Laban Tibiita's strike leveled the score for this side, having gone behind just nine minutes after kickoff before conceding the 89th minute in the second half. Heading into this game, URA SC have lost three of their last four matches, one against Airtel Kitara, with their lone win against UPDF. With 30 points from 20 matches, URA SC sit in 6th place with 21 goals scored and 16 conceded. 

Mbale Heroes

Mbale Heroes played Lugazi in their last league game and suffered a defeat. In a 1-3 contest, a second-half Robert Eseru strike was all this team could take as Sharif Saaka, Sam Ssemgugu, and Hussein Ssenoga netted for their opponent. In the meantime, Mbale Heroes have gone winless in their last ten league matches. In that run, Mbale Heroes lost to Kampala City, BUL, Mbarara City, NEC FC, Maroons, Airtel Kitara, and Vipers. This season, Mbale Heroes have 10 points from 20 matches, leaving them seated at the bottom of the standings.
