Read current form, team news, head-to-head statistics, and our UPL prediction.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">URA FC and KCCA FC meet at Hamz Stadium on Friday, 9 October 2026, with both Kampala clubs needing a response after a difficult <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug-m\/sports\/Football\/Uganda\/Premier%20League?tournamentId=sr%3Atournament%3A14864\">Uganda Premier League<\/a> start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KCCA enter Matchday Five with four points from four matches, while URA have three from three. Those returns place both clubs in the lower half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The match follows Entebbe UPPC against Police in a Nakivubo double-header. Coaches Jimmy Kintu Mwera and Brian Ssenyondo have had the international break to address weaknesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Match details and kick-off clarification<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Detail<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Information<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fixture<\/td><td>URA FC vs KCCA FC<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Competition<\/td><td>2026\/27 Uganda Premier League<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Matchday<\/td><td>Five<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Date<\/td><td>Friday, 9 October 2026<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Venue<\/td><td>Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kick-off<\/td><td>8:00 p.m.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Current league position<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KCCA have one win, one draw and two defeats, scoring once and conceding four. URA have one win and two losses, scoring three and conceding six.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Victory could quickly improve either position; defeat would increase the pressure as the leaders accumulate points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>URA FC form and team outlook<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">URA opened with a promising 2-1 away victory over Maroons, suggesting the Tax Collectors could adapt quickly under Kintu Mwera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their next two matches exposed problems. SC Villa won 1-0 at Hamz Stadium before <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/nec-thrash-ura-return-to-winning-ways\/\">NEC completed a 4-1 comeback<\/a> at Lugogo. Isma Mugulusi scored early, but URA conceded three times before half-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">URA must become harder to play through after losing possession. Goalkeeper Crispus Kusiima and defenders, including James Begisa and Dissan Galiwango, require greater coordination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mugulusi, Moses Waiswa and Nelson Ssenkatuka offer experience. Former KCCA attacker Alex Yiga adds pace and an obvious storyline if selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"KCCA goal scorer Emmanuel Anyama raises his finger while celebrating his goal against Kataka FC.\" class=\"wp-image-9503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-2048x2048.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-696x696.png 696w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-1068x1068.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-17_093435120-1920x1920.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emmanuel Anyama celebrates after scoring KCCA FC\u2019s winning goal against Kataka FC at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo.

Sammy Ssebaduka supplied the low cross for KCCA\u2019s first league victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One goal in four matches remains poor for a club with title ambitions. KCCA needs faster combinations and more runners without weakening their defensive balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Captain Herbert Achayi has returned from Uganda Cranes duty. Anyama and Ssebaduka carry momentum, while returning striker Ivan Ahimbisibwe could strengthen the attack if selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>URA vs KCCA head-to-head record<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last meeting ended goalless in May 2026. Across six recent league meetings, KCCA have three wins, URA two, and one ended level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Fixture<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Result<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>19 May 2026<\/td><td>URA vs KCCA<\/td><td>0\u20130<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>21 November 2025<\/td><td>KCCA vs URA<\/td><td>2\u20131<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>16 April 2025<\/td><td>URA vs KCCA<\/td><td>1\u20130<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>13 September 2024<\/td><td>KCCA vs URA<\/td><td>1\u20130<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>11 May 2024<\/td><td>URA vs KCCA<\/td><td>1\u20130<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2 January 2024<\/td><td>KCCA vs URA<\/td><td>3\u20132<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The designated host won four of those meetings, although Hamz Stadium is familiar to both clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Team news and predicted approach<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Neither club had published a final squad at publication time.

KCCA can build through Achayi before releasing Ssebaduka wide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first goal could determine the contest.
