Express FC host Blacks Power at Muteesa II Stadium tonight at 7:00 PM in a must-win StarTimes Uganda Premier League fixture. The Red Eagles are winless in seven matches and sit 14th with eight points. Frustrations among the faithful boiled over after the draw against Ntugasaze. Rumors suggest anything less than three points could see the club hierarchy wield the axe on Morley Byekwaso. Blacks Power sit 7th with 13 points under Simon Peter Mugerwa.

Vipers SC welcome Lugazi to St Mary's Stadium in Kitende this evening. The reigning champions have dropped to 10th with 11 points after back-to-back away defeats to Mbarara City and URA FC. John 'Ayala' Luyinda needs a response. The Venoms are unbeaten in their last four meetings with Lugazi, winning three and drawing one. Lugazi sit 13th with eight points.

In the day's other fixture Entebbe UPPC travel to Kira Police Arena in Kamwokya to face Ntugasaze. The visitors aim to snap a streak of draws while Ntugasaze ride high after frustrating Express.

The talking point in Kampala is whether Byekwaso and Ayala survive the week if results go against them tonight.

Key fixtures tonight:

  • Express FC vs Blacks Power, Muteesa II Stadium, 7:00 PM
  • Vipers SC vs Lugazi FC, St Mary's Stadium Kitende
  • Ntugasaze FC vs Entebbe UPPC, Kira Police Arena Kamwokya
