SC Villa will host BUL FC at the FUFA Stadium in Kidiba in a crucial Uganda Cup Round of 32 clash. 

Earlier this season, BUL FC edged Villa 2‑1 in the Premier League at the FUFA Technical Centre, giving the nine time Champions, a chance for redemption in the Cup.

The 2026 Uganda Cup, the nation’s premier knockout tournament since 1971, reached a pivotal stage on Tuesday when the Round of 32 draw was conducted live on FUFA TV. 

Fans, coaches, and club officials eagerly watched as the 32 remaining sides discovered their opponents.

The Villa Vs BUL FC tie is among the most anticipated. Other key matchups include Kitara FC Vs Entebbe UPPC FC, KCCA FC Vs Mbarara City FC, Police FC Vs Lugazi FC, and UPDF FC Vs NEC FC. 

Arua based Onduparaka will host Football Classroom after a remarkable 720 kilometre Round of 64 victory in Rwamwanja.

To remember, former top flight sides Wakiso Giants, Mbale Heroes, and Bright Stars were eliminated, along with Buhimba United Saints and Calvary, showing the Cup’s unpredictability.

The Round of 32 fixtures, scheduled from February 21–28, include:

  • URA FC VS Blacks Power FC  
  • Ntagusaze FC VS Express FC  
  • Tapoh FC VS Mutolere SC  
  • Bunyuruguru FC VS Amus College FC  
  • SC Villa VS BUL FC  
  • Red Devo FC VS Kaaro Karungi FC  
  • Vipers SC VS Pajole Lions  
  • Onduparaka FC VS Football Classroom
  • Kitara FC VS Entebbe UPPC FC

  • Maroons FC VS Kumi United  
  • Six O’clock VS Kataka FC  
  • UPDF FC VS NEC FC  
  • Kigezi HomeBoyz FC VS Happy Boys FC  
  • Iganga United VS Melody Star FC

With Express FC and KCCA FC still stationed as the record champions of the competition with 10 each, they will all have a chance to go top.

Other sides like Kitara FC, Entebbe UPPC FC, Tapoh, Mutolere, and Six O’clock also have a chance to create Cup headlines.
