URA, on the other, sit eighth on the 16-team log with 31 points garnered in 21 matches.

The Venoms were 2-0 victors in the first round at the St Mary's Stadium, Kitende, courtesy of Erick Kambale and Abdu Lumala.

Lumala since departed the club for professional ranks in Croatia at top-tier outfit Slaven Belupo Koprivnica.
