Two-time champions Uganda Martyrs University (UMU) will face St Lawrence University (SLAU) in this season’s Pepsi University football league final.
This is after Uganda Martyrs progressed with a 2-0 aggregate win over Bugema University on Tuesday.
The two sides played to a barren stalemate in the return leg but first leg goals from Emmanuel Tumusiime and Richard Lagu were enough to see Uganda Martyrs prevail in the two-legged semifinal.
St. Lawrence University eliminated Islamic University in Uganda (IUIU) 2-1 on aggregate in the earlier semifinal.
The 2024/25 final will be played on 27th April and this comes as a repeat of the 2022 University Football League final that Uganda Martyrs won.
St Lawrence University will be contesting in their third University Football League final in the previous four editions.
They fell short in 2019 to Uganda Christian University (UCU) and 2022 against UMU.
UMU have meanwhile won the title in 2017 and 2022.
Nkumba University won their first title last year with a resounding 3-1 win over UCU in the final.
