SC Villa lost the opportunity to reduce the gap between them and run away leaders Vipers SC after falling 2-1 away to Bul FC.
The Venoms had lost to URA 3-1 in their last league game giving Villa a good opportunity to narrow the gap. The hosts started the match on a high trying to get a goal and cool the nerves of the home fans.
However, it was the 16-time league champions who opened the scoring after 14 minutes. Yayo Lutimba brought in a beautiful cross from the wing and Ronald Magwali headed it in to give the former champions an advantage.
