Banbridge next up for Roesiders

LIMAVADY United continue their league campaign this Saturday as they travel to Co. Down to take on Banbridge Town.

Colin Malone's outfit inflicted one of United's two league defeats earlier this season when they won at the Showgrounds.

Town are currently 9th in the league having played sixteen games two more than the Roesiders but they have only seventeen points from these games.

They have scored just twenty one goals in those games and have conceded a total of thirty one goals in those league games.

They have lost five of their last six games in all competitions with the other game being a draw against Ballinamallard United.

Despite their poor recent form Roesiders boss Oran Kearney will not be underestimating his opponents this weekend.

"I know that Banbridge haven't been in the best of form recently but I still expect a tough game from them.

"They showed earlier this season exactly what they can do when they came and beat us at the Showgrounds.

"I expect Colin (Malone) to have them well prepared for this game and I'm sure they will fancy beating us this time again.

"We have to make sure that that doesn't happen and we will have the players well prepared for exactly what we want to do.

"We have been playing some very good football and that is what we will be looking to continue in this game against Banbridge.

"At this stage of the season it's really all about getting three points from games and that's what we will be looking for.

"We have been missing a few players in recent games and it will be good to have all of them back for the run in," concluded Kearney.

Going into the game United have no real injury worries and should have a full squad to choose from as the players who missed last weekend through illness will all be available again.

Limavady United are hosting a pre match lunch for the Loughgall game on Saturday, March 13 starting at 1pm.

Tickets for this are 11.50 which includes lunch, wine and entry to the game as well as an exclusive pre match speaker.
