- Vipers vs Busoga United – St. Mary’s stadium, Kitende 6pm
- URA vs SC Villa – Mehta Grounds, Lugazi 3pm
The StarTimes Uganda Premier League comes to end on Sunday with two fixtures on card.
Reigning champions Vipers and record winners SC Villa will be more desperate for all points as they aim to close in on leaders BUL who dropped points in the draw with Mbarara City on Saturday.
Vipers host Busoga United under floodlights at Kitende aware that a win will lift them to second position on 30 points and cut the gap between them and leaders BUL to just three points.
The Venoms will miss Ghanaian Asiwome Fumador who score a hat trick in the last game on his first start for the club but Milton Karisa, Yunus Sentamu and Eric Kambale are all available to lead the hunt for goals.
Busoga United have so far stunned KCCA and Kitara and will hope the giant killing comes with them to Kitende where the Venoms have lost just once in almost two years.
At Lugazi, Villa take on URA, a side that denied them a title last season on the last day.
The Jogoos had an opportunity to lift the title but lost to Fesali Najib header extending their wait for a record extending 17th league trophy.
Villa will climb to 3rd place if they beat the tax collectors, one of the best ball playing side in the division under David Obua.
