Stanbic Uganda Cup: Round of 32
Kitara FC vs Entebbe UPPC
4PM
Royals Park- Butema
All roads lead to Royals Park – Butema on Tuesday evening for one of the Stanbic Uganda Cup Round of 32’s most intriguing fixtures: Kitara FC vs. Entebbe UPPC.
Both teams, currently in the top five of a tightly contested league, view this cup competition as crucial to their chances of winning silverware this season.
Each side secured hard-fought victories in the round of 64. Entebbe UPPC needed a Fazil Tumwine goal to edge past Koboko’s Ombachi Pride FC, while Kitara defeated Obule Earth Quake FC 1-0 courtesy of John Bosco Byaruhanga.
Kitara FC will bank on home support at Royals Park to overcome Entebbe UPPC in Tuesday’s clash. Coach Wasswa Bbosa emphasized the challenge, “We are facing an organized and tough opponent. It’s not going to be an easy task, but we are playing at home before our fans, and we know we shall finish the job at hand.”
Kitara brings a strong home record into the game, unbeaten since a 1-0 loss to Buhimba United Saints on 16th October 2025. However, this streak faces a severe test against a defensively formidable Entebbe UPPC side. The Printers boast eight consecutive clean sheets, proving themselves one of the league’s toughest defenses to breach.
In their previous league meeting this season away at Bugonga Fisheries play ground, Abdullah Mubiru’s side defeated Kitara 1-0. Tuesday’s encounter promises to be another thriller.
Despite that recent league loss, Kitara holds a perfect record against Entebbe UPPC in the Stanbic Uganda Cup, winning both prior meetings:
2024: Kitara 2-0 Entebbe UPPC (then Gaddafi FC)
2025: Entebbe UPPC 1-2 Kitara
Team News Update:
Coach Wasswa Bbosa could potentially unleash fresh acquisitions Shaban Muhammad and Kabon Living.
Kitara team captain Jasper Aheebwa returns from suspension. He missed the previous league match, a 1-1 draw against URA FC, due to this suspension.
