URA, Express Meet in Another Arduous tie
Its completely a do or die assignment for both sides URA FC and Express FC who meet in an arduous task of the Uganda premier league on 14th February 2021 at the Arena of Visions in Ndejje.

However, they face the tax collectors whose last engagement was a deserved 2-1 win against the 13 league champions KCCA at Lugogo.
