Police, managed by Matia Lule, will rely on the experience of Said Kyeyune, Richard Matovu, and Deus Bukenya to cause an upset.

The champions have a strong record against Police, winning 11 of their last 15 league meetings, with Police managing just three wins.

The match promises to be an exciting one, with Vipers looking to maintain their momentum and Police aiming to dent their title hopes.
