Week 4 Fixtures
🏉 Mongers Vs SilverBacks
🏉 Walukuba Barbarians Vs Rams

📌 Pirates head into their bye week assured of knockout qualification and top spot in Group A. Their final group-stage clash against Mongers in Entebbe will be a real test of focus and resolve.

📌 Mongers, currently 2nd, are yet to seal their knockout spot. They’ll host the Kigezi SilverBacks this weekend, aiming to collect maximum points ahead of a decisive midweek fixture against Rams, a game that could determine who finishes second in the group.

📌 Rams travel to Walukuba eyeing vital away points against a struggling Barbarians side, before their crunch meeting with Mongers later in the week.

📌 Walukuba Barbarians have fielded several youngsters in this year’s Uganda Cup, choosing to rest their senior players after a demanding 2025 season. However, two losses and a walkover haven’t sat well with their loyal fans, who’ll hope the trend ends soon.

📌 The Kigezi SilverBacks have faced steep learning curves against stronger opposition but earned a walkover win in Round 2 against Walukuba. Credit to them for honouring their fixtures so far in a tournament where several teams have withdrawn.

Week 4 Fixtures
🏉 Rhinos Vs Mbale Elephants
🏉 Warriors Vs Gulu City Falcons

📌 Hippos Rugby Club have something to smile about despite their off-field challenges; they lead Group B with one game left to play.

📌 Rhinos sit second with two wins and one loss. They host the Mbale Elephants in a crucial tie that could give them breathing space from their closest challengers.

📌 The Mbale Elephants were handed a walkover in Week 3, keeping them in the knockout race. However, a tricky away fixture against the Rhinos, direct rivals with similar ambitions, now awaits.

📌 Warriors appear to have withdrawn from the 2025 Uganda Cup, though no official communication has been released. Whether their fixture against Gulu City Falcons takes place will offer clarity on their stance.

📌 The Falcons sit at the bottom of the group with a slim shot at the playoffs. They’ll need to win both remaining games and hope other results swing their way.

Kakira Simbas - 0 points
Fort Portal Tyrants - 0 points

Week 4 Fixtures
🏉 Buffaloes Vs Fort Portal Tyrants
🏉 Kakira Simbas Vs Kyambogo Rugby

📌 KOBs snatched top spot from the Buffaloes with a late win, setting up an exciting finish in Group C, where the race for first place remains open.

📌 Buffaloes have the chance to reclaim top spot when they host the Tyrants, mindful that the Blue Army still have a game in hand after their bye weekend.

📌 Kyambogo travel to Kakira in a must-win fixture for both sides. Kyambogo still has an outside shot at a top-two finish, though their fate no longer lies fully in their hands.

📌 Fort Portal Tyrants continue their learning curve after a run of tough results. Their focus now shifts to getting points on the board and finishing the group on a positive note, though the challenges keep coming each week.

Kitgum Lions - 4 points
Elgon Wolves - 0 points

Week 4 Fixtures
🏉 Elgon Wolves Vs Impis (w/o)
🏉 Victoria Sharks Vs Kitgum Lions

📌 Heathens head into their bye weekend with top spot in Group D already secured. Their focus now shifts fully to the knockout stages.

📌 Impis and Victoria Sharks are set for a tense battle for the remaining qualification spot, with log points and points difference likely to decide who advances.

📌 Impis will feel slightly hard done by a guaranteed walkover this weekend, after Elgon Wolves’ premature exit from the Uganda Cup denied them a chance to boost their points tally. The lively Makerere side, however, still have one crucial game left against Kitgum, which could define their campaign.

📌 Victoria Sharks’ loss to Impis proved costly. As they face the Kitgum Lions this weekend, they’ll need a strong performance, and a keen eye on Impis’ remaining fixtures to keep their knockout hopes alive.
