This Weekend’s Uganda Premier League Predictions (From 16th December – 18th December 2025)
Bul FC VS URA Kampala
Main Tip: Home to win
The home team has been on sensational form, having won four of its last five matches played. On head-to-head stats, Bul FC have had three wins, two draws, and just one loss against URA Kampala, which tips the scales in favor of the home team to win
Gaddafi FC VS Buhimba United Saints
Main Tip: Draw or Under 2.5
There are not so many encounters between these two teams, but the two encounters made between these two giants have resulted in under 2.5 goals and also a draw result. Both teams are lethal in front of the goal and would require more game time to find scoring form
Kitara FC VS KCC Kampala
Main Tip: Over 2.5 goals
This fixture has always produced goals in all of its encounters. Each team will aim to have a good head start ahead of its first game of the season. They have produced over 2.5 goals in four of their last six games played against each other.
Lugazi Municipal VS Calvary
Main Tip: Under 2.5 goals
Lugazi Municipal have lost their last five Premier League matches in a row and have also failed to score in all of those matches. Calvary does not have a good record, having lost three of their last five matches played.
Police FC (UGA) VS Mbarara City
Main Tip: Under 2.5 goals
This is a really tight contest as both teams are lethal, and therefore no clear favourites.
