Can SC Villa stick to the form they had in the first round of the Azam Uganda Premier League?

This is one of the biggest question that awaits the 16-time league champions as THE second round of the league kicks off this weekend.

The table leaders managed to register nine victories in twelve matches to open up a three-point lead atop the standings at the end of the first round in December last year.

They host Maroons this Saturday in their round two opener at Masaka recreational ground.

But what gives them confidence is that they managed to win all the eight games they played at home in the first round.

Elsewhere, Onduparaka will face off with bottom side Express at Green Light Stadium in Arua while Vipers travel to Kavumba to play Soana.

At Namboole, Police will host Mbarara City while Proline plays Kirinya Jinja SS at StarTimes Stadium, Lugogo.
