MUBS have not won the UFL since 2015, when they clinched their second consecutive title, and should be hungry for a third trophy this year.
Bugema University and Makerere University Business School remain on course for a place in this year’s Pepsi University Football League semifinals.
There’s all to play for between the two institutions in the second leg of this quarterfinal in Nakawa following a goalless draw in the first leg played in Bugema on Tuesday.
It was the first meeting between Bugema and MUBS in this competition, and this was evident from the slowness of both teams.
The second meeting on Tuesday, March 5 is expected to be an improved show with a semifinal slot at stake.
