Vipers take on a side that hasn't lost in the last three league games, winning twice and managing a stalemate in the other.

Vipers SC will be keen on keeping their pursuit for silverware this season with a Uganda Premier League clash against Maroons FC at the St Mary's Stadium, Kitende, on Tuesday.

The Venoms come into the game off the back of a hugely important 2-0 victory over title contenders Kitara FC, which momentarily lifted us to the top of the log.
