The 2017/18 Azam Uganda Premier League will today Tuesday go down to the wire as the title chasers SC Vipers and KCCA FC play host to Express FC and BUL FC respectively. Vipers lead the table with just two points off KCCA.

As we head to these must-win fixtures, Vipers has had enough time to prepare for the anticipated mouth watering fixture at the St Mary’s Stadium. The Venoms need nothing less than the maximum three points to keep their title hopes alive.

However, they are facing Express which has history to protect of never being relegated. The Red Eagles has thorny chances to survive and today’s game also counts if they are to survive.

Currently they are third from the bottom on 28 points one behind UPDF FC who are only waiting for Vipers to close their campaign.

After surviving Bright Stars’ scare, defending Champions still have their eyes on the title. As the await Vipers to blink, Kasasiro boys must also keep in check by winning the remaining two games starting with BUL  today at the StarTimes Stadium.
