2025/26 Uganda Premier League | MD 19 | Fixtures | Thursday March 6,

  • KCCA FC Vs Police FC – Phillip Omondi Stadium | 8 pm

Kampala Capital City Authority FC will look to continue their recent revival when they host neighbours Police FC under the floodlights at Lugogo on Friday evening.

KCCA come into the game confident after back to back wins over Buhimba United and BUL, ending a two match losing streak. 

Brian Ssenyondo and Jackson Magera’s men sit third on the table with 36 points and will rely on striker Ivan Ahimbisibwe, who has scored three goals in the last two matches. Gabonese forward Axel Mezui could also make an impact.

Police, sixth with 32 points, arrive on the back of a home defeat to BUL and have won just once in their last five league matches. 

The Cops welcome back DR Congo-born forward Bedia Ikamba from suspension to join Umar Kasumba and Charles Bbale in attack.

Historically, KCCA have dominated the fixture with 17 wins, one loss, and the rest draws, though Police won the reverse fixture 2-0 at Kiira Road Arena.

Elsewhere, Kitara FC can move to the top of the table when they visit struggling UPDF FC in Bombo. 

Friday also sees BUL FC host Calvary FC in Njeru, and Maroons FC take on Buhimba United Saints FC at Luzira. 

Saturday’s matches include Entebbe UPPC vs URA FC in Bugonga, Mbarara City FC vs Vipers in Kamwenge, and SC Villa vs Express FC at FUFA Stadium, Kadiba.
