The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. URA are in the 6th position while the guesting Bright Stars worry at 14th.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
URA form and stats
When playing at home in the Premier League, URA have managed 3 wins, 5 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 9 games. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Ndejje Uni - Luwero.
A good away victory last time out for URA, who won 3-1 against BUL (placed 3rd). Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against SC Villa.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for URA as they are travelling to their away game against Lugazi Municipal in the Uganda Cup. That match is one day after this one.
The URA fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 9 matches. Defensively URA have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (4 in 9 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
