Tuesday March 3, 2026

  • Police vs BUL – Kiira Road Police Arena, Kamwokya 4pm
  • Kitara vs Entebbe UPPC – Royal Park Butema 4pm
  • NEC vs UPDF – MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo 8pm
  • Vipers vs Lugazi – St. Mary’s stadium, Kitende 8pm

Vipers and Kitara seek to return to winning ways in the premier league when they host Lugazi and Entebbe UPPC respectively.

The champions have dropped four points in the last two matches which saw their lead cut to two points with KCCA winning at Buhimba.

Against Lugazi, they will aim to seal their maiden double over the side and re-open a sizeable gap over the chasing pack with Karim Watambala and Milton Karisa expected to lead charge.

At Royal Park Butema, Kitara renew acquaintances with Entebbe UPPC seven days after eliminating them from Stanbic Uganda Cup at the same venue.

The hosts lost the reverse fixture 1-0 in Bugonga and need to avenge that result to keep within touching distance of Vipers.

They will move top of the table with a win for at least a few hours as Vipers play later on the day.

Entebbe UPPC are unbeaten in the last nine premier league fixtures and have conceded only one goal in ten.

They have a chance to leapfrog Kitara if they stun them at their home ground as they sit just two points behind on 34.

At MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo, NEC host relegation fighting UPDF in another fixture that is a repeat of the Uganda Cup game in the round of 32.

The hosts are unbeaten in 2026 and will be favourites against the army side that occupies second from bottom position on the table.

Elsewhere, Police and BUL face off at the Kiira Road Police Arena in Kamwokya.

BUL is winless in the past two matches and now occupy 8th place with 20 points while Police, held by Buhimba in the last game are 6th with 32 points.

Other match day 18 fixtures
