Table leaders Kitara will look to extend their lead at the top when they host Mbarara City on Tuesday at Masindi Municipal stadium.

The Royals will have several players in their squad renewing acquaintances with former bosses Mbarara City which makes for an interesting clash.

Paul Mucureezi, Dudu Ramadhan, Solomon Okwalinga, Jude Ssemugabi, Brian Aheebwa and Jasper Aheebwa join coach Brian Ssenyondo who are all former Ankole Lions.

A win for the hosts extends their lead by four points for at least twenty-four hours before outcomes from the double header at Namboole involving BUL and Vipers as well as KCCA and Villa.

Kitara won the previous outing 2-1 at Express while Mbarara City played to a goalless draw with UPDF at Kakyeeka.

The Ankole Lions are 11^th with 29 points while Kitara sit top with 47 points.

At Kabaka Kyabaggu stadium, Busoga will hope to build on the win against Wakiso Giants by getting points off hosts URA.

They lie 13^th, one place and two points above relegation zone with 21 points while URA are 8^th with 34 points.

The reverse fixture between the two sides ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw but Busoga will draw inspiration from winning their last visit to URA 2-1 last season.
