Ballykelly hoping it’s third time lucky this weekend

Caw continued their improved form with a 2-0 home win over Tullyally.

In an entertaining game Ardmore defeated Dungiven Reserves 6-4 while Drummond had a 4-1 win at Donemana.

This weekend, Ballykelly will try for a third week to play their Coca/Cola Irish Junior Cup third round tie against Silverwood United.

The tie, which has been postponed twice because of the weather, has now been switched to Ballykelly this weekend.

In the First Division, Irish Street will be looking to bounce back from their defeat to Claudy Rovers, when they travel Wilton Park to face Churchill.

As for leaders Claudy Rovers they will fancy their chances of getting another three points when they face a free-scoring Ardmore Reserves team, while second placed Burnfoot are favourites to claim the points when they travel to lowly Douglas Bridge.

The Second Division sees leaders Lisahally, who still haven’t tasted defeat this campaign, take on Lincoln Courts Reserves, third placed Greysteel have the chance to close the gap on Eglinton, but they won’t get everything their own way at Dromore.

The Premier Division’s match of the day sees Lincoln Courts take on Waterside neigbours Tullyally, who will be smarting from their defeat at Caw.

Ardmore v Caw

Ardmore manager Damien McGee looks to have sorted his sides problems out with two wins on the trot, however they are still well behind the top two and they can’t afford any further slip ups.

Caw have shown in recent games that they are not a bad side and when at full strength they will give any team plenty to think about.

Prediction: Ardmore.

Dungiven Reserves v BBOB

The home side are struggling at the wrong end of the table, they are conceding to many goals and it looks like being a season of struggle.

The Old Boys lost their one hundred per cent record in last weeks draw with Lincoln Courts, however manager Don Olphert will expect to collect all three points from this one.

Prediction: BBOB.

Tullyally v Lincoln Courts

The Colts played poorly in last Saturdays defeat at Caw, they aren’t playing their normal free flowing football and results are suffering, however they are always difficult to beat at home.

The Courts showed what they are capable of last week but they know that if they are going to be serious title challengers they must be more consistent.

Prediction: Lincoln Courts.

Drummond v Donemana

These two meet for the second week in a row, in last weeks game the Roesiders were comfortable winners and with home advantage this time round they will be strong favourites to do the double.

Prediction: Drummond.
