UPDF clinched a hard-fought 0-1 victory on the road against BUL in their most recent match, and as they prepare for their upcoming game, they are eager to continue their winning streak.

Despite UPDF's recent consecutive wins and the motivation they bring, Vipers, being the home team and possessing a stronger squad, are poised for victory. Although UPDF cannot be underestimated, the gap in skill level and the advantage of playing on home turf should secure Vipers the upper hand in what is likely to be a one-sided victory, albeit with a handicap.
