The game between BUL FC and Mbarara City was called off in the 60th minute and extended to be played on Sunday 9th May 2021 at Kyabazinga Stadium, Bugembe with kick off at 11am.

The game was stopped in the 60th minute due to a heavy down pour. The scores were 1-1.

Jude Ssemugabi gave Mbarara City an early lead in the 20th minute after pouncing on a loose ball after Innocent Wafula's cross deflected off Walter Ochola but Richard Wandyaka headed home Robert Mukongotya's cross in the 44th minute to level the scores.

The stadium has virtually no drainage channels and thus no outlets. The game couldn't resume after it stopped raining.

The other stadiums available in Jinja are fully occupied. FUFA Technical Center, Njeru that has an artificial turf is occupied with Women league games and Kakindu Stadium wasn't approved by the FUFA Licensing Committee to host Uganda Premier League games.
