The affair presents a repeat of Sunday's Stanbic Uganda Cup contest, which ended with Kitara hitting the semifinals via penalties after it had ended in a two-all stalemate.
It will be top against the third in the Uganda Premier League as Kitara FC hosts Vipers in what promises pulsating action at the Masindi Stadium on Friday.

Vipers will thus ascend top of proceedings with 45 points should they manage victory over the current leaders.
