Calvary v Lugazi
UPDF v Express
At 8pm
SC Villa v Vipers
A high-stakes encounter awaits in Bombo as UPDF FC look to build on their recent resurgence when they host Express FC in the Uganda Premier League.
The army side head into the clash with renewed belief after a morale-lifting victory over Mbarara City FC, a result that lifted them off the bottom and reignited hopes of survival. Sitting 13th on 17 points, UPDF know another positive result could push them further away from danger, especially if results elsewhere go their way.
However, standing in their path is an Express side rediscovering form. The Red Eagles arrive in Bombo fresh from a win over Police FC and will be keen to complete a season double, having edged the first meeting at Nakivubo.
History also tilts slightly in Express’ favour. They have not lost to UPDF since 2021, steadily building a run of consistent results in this fixture that underlines their psychological edge.
For UPDF, this is about momentum and survival. For Express, it is about control and consistency. With both sides chasing different ambitions, the Bombo clash promises intensity and significance in equal measure.
