SC Villa and Vipers SC played out to a goalless stalemate on Tuesday at Muteesa II Stadium in Wankulukuku.
The two sides failed to prevail in a game they created numerous scoring opportunities.
Vipers had a decent chance through Yunus Sentamu who failed to tap in a perfect Milton Karisa cross in the second period.
SC Villa also came close through their starman Patrick Jonah Kakande who was well fed by Abasi Kyeyune but the latter fired over the bar.
Umar Lutalo had his free kick effort saved by Vipers custodian Jack Komakech.
By fulltime whistle, the two sides settled for a stalemate that sees Vipers remain third on the log with 42 points while SC Villa are fourth on 41 points.
