URA SC vs UPDF Prediction: A competitive close contest is expected

In round 19 of the Uganda Premier League, URA SC will play UPDF at Hamz Stadium. The two teams are coming off contrasting results, with UPDF securing a win in their last game. Which team wins this one? Below, I will preview this game and offer predictions. 

URA SC

URA SC played Airtel Kitara in their last league game and ended on the losing end. In a 1-0 contest, Zaga’s 37th goal was the decider of the day, as the remaining minutes of the game ended goalless. In the meantime, URA SC's recent matches have ended in two wins, defeating Police FC and Maroons. In other encounters, this team lost to Vipers and Villa, these matches ending 2-0 and 1-0, respectively. Ahead of this game, URA SC have 27 points from 18 matches, leaving them seated in 6th place.

UPDF

UPDF were at home against Villa the previous time out and secured a win. In a 2-0 contest, this team scored in each half, with Daniel Kitara and Brian Kalumba striking. However, this team has now gone unbeaten in their last three league games, defeating Mbarara City in that run and drawing UPDF. Ahead of this game, UPDF lost three of their last road matches, while winning the remaining two. UPDF have 24 points from their first 18 matches, scoring 14 goals and conceding 20, as they sit in 9th place.

It is difficult to confidently back a side in their last game and this could be a tough one. While URA SC will look to respond to their recent poor, inconsistent play, I believe they have the better chance. Yet, with UPDF's recent plays, I will back them to score here.
