On Tuesday February 9, Vipers will be hosted by Express FC at Wankulukuku Stadium, which match will see all the clubs have a total of 5 match fixture. It should be noted that these two matches had to be postponed to pave way for Vipers engagements in CAF champions League.

The league started late specifically on December 3, 2020 as compared to usual kick off which is always the first week of September.

“This means we lost three months. This implies we shall have a short break of may be a week in between first and second round or even no break in the circumstances.”

He added that they expect a very competitive season judging from the results of the first five match days so far played. UPDF FC were table leaders before the CHAN break. This is a testimony that the competition will be stiff.
