The 2025 Fufa Super 8 tournament gets underway on Wednesday at the MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo with four teams in action including rivals SC Villa and KCCA.
But first, URA take on Kitara in the early kick off in a fixture that the two managers will use to test their new signings ahead of the 2025/16 season.
The tax collectors finished last season in 4th position with 52 points while Kitara were seven points behind in 7th position.
Alex Isabirye is expected to unleash some of the new faces at URA including former Kitara players Arthur Kiggundu, Chrispas Kusiima and Ronald Otti as well ex-Bright Stars striker Nelson Ssenkatuka.
For George Lutalo and Wasswa Bbosa in charge of the Royals, it will be a whole new team following several exits but Murushid Jjuuko, Emmanuel Wasswa, Meddie Kibirige and Isa Lumu among others could get their debuts.
In the late kick off, KCCA and Villa will unleash new men in the dugout alongside a couple of acquisitions so far.
Brian Ssenyondo, KCCA co-coach alongside Jackson Magera will be in charge and it remains to be seen whether they will field their national team players who have been in the TotalEnergies Africa Nations Championship.
New faces Ivan Ahimbisibwe, Lazaro Bwambale are all available and despite being a pre-season tournament, the aim will be to win for either side to establish a decent first leg advantage.
For Villa, the match provides Serbian Kovacevic Zeljko with a first test of football in Uganda.
The club has so far kept their cards on the chest in regards to new signings and thus Zeljko will be the main attraction.
The two matches have meanwhile been overshadowed by events regarding the new league format has been rejected by Vipers and SC Villa.
