Kyetume has not lost a game in the StarTimes FUFA Big League against the promotion chasers drawing with Police and then beating NEC and Mbarara City at home.
Kyetume head coach David Mutono has dared Kitara ahead of their Startimes FUFA Big League fixture on Thursday.
Kitara has been a poor traveller throughout the season, winning only two games and will be travelling to a team that has had a piece of all the other three contenders for promotion in the division.
The Slaughters scratched a point against Police before beating both NEC and Mbarara City to move out of the relegation zone.
