Elsewhere, seven-time winners APR have been drawn against league strugglers AS Muhanga, while SC Kiyovu will face Esperance. Another all-top flight division league clash will be between Gicumbi against Espoir, who beat second division outfit Pepiniere 4-0 on Thursday.
Second division sides SEC academy face Aspor and Etoile de l’est will meet Amagaju.
The winner in the final will represent the country in the 2015 Caf Confederation Cup. The final will be played on July 4. Last year, AS Kigali beat AS Muhanga 3-0 to lift the Cup.
