Resurgent URA travel to Bukedea on Wednesday targeting a third consecutive 1-0 victory against winless Kataka in the StarTimes Uganda Premier League.

Sam Ssimbwa's tax collectors have collected maximum points against UPDF and Vipers to climb to ten points from eight matches.

Kataka remain one of two sides yet to win a league game this season with only three points from nine outings.

Ali Sentamu leads Kataka's attack with four goals while URA's defence marshals Joshua Lubwama.

At MTN Omondi Stadium Lugogo, KCCA aim to stretch their winning run to six matches against Maroons.

Brian Ssenyondo's men sit fifth on 16 points after a clinical 3-1 win at Mbarara City.

A victory would move KCCA within striking distance of joint leaders BUL and NEC.

Maroons arrive unbeaten in four games including draws against Entebbe UPPC and Vipers at Kitende.

Fred Amaku and Dickson Niwamanya spearhead the visitors' attack.

Former KCCA midfielder Jackson Nunda faces his old club looking to orchestrate an upset.

KCCA's frontline of Charles Lwanga, Ivan Ahimbisibwe and Sammy Ssebaduka will test Maroons' resilience.

SC Villa's unbeaten run ended Tuesday with defeat at Njeru leaving them a point ahead of KCCA.
