Perhaps a welcome break from league football as URA & Nyamityobora face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Uganda Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Premier League match only two days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Kyetume.
URA form and stats
URA have not come this way in the Uganda Cup without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Lugazi Municipal. Last season their Uganda Cup adventure ended in the 8th finals.When playing at home in the Premier League, URA have managed 5 wins, 5 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 11 games. URA has a nice streak going on as they have played ten consecutive games without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Vipers defeat 90 days ago. Ever since the Express FC game URA has been unbeatable here producing four straight wins.
An away draw last time out for URA, facing Kyetume in a game that ended 1-1. Before that, URA had a Premier League home game versus KCCA which ended with a victory 2-1.
URA has scored 12 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. As for guarding their own goal, URA have only let in 5 goals at home.
Nyamityobora form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Chimpanzee in order to reach 2nd Round of Uganda Cup. Last season their Uganda Cup adventure ended in the 2nd round.There's been little loot from Nyamityobora's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 15 away games in the Premier League. Nyamityobora only have 1 win to counter their 12 defeats and 2 draws. It's looking increasingly bleak for Nyamityobora who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. URA was the last time a defeat was avoided. It's all red in the travel logs of Nyamityobora, having lost six matches in a row as the visiting team.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Chimpanzee (after extra-time, 2-3 on penalties) in their previous outing. The Uganda Cup match ended in a draw 2-2. Preceding that game, the 0-6 loss visiting SC Villa's place.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Nyamityobora as they have only managed to score 13 times from 15 away games in the league. The Nyamityobora manager has some worries about the defense as 36 goals have been conceded in these travels.
