BBOB v Ardmore

This is undoubtedly the tie of the round. These two met a number of weeks ago with the Old Boys coming out on top, however games between them are usually very close.

Both sides have good players throughout their side which should make for a cracking cup tie at Lisnagelvin.

Prediction: BBOB

Dungiven Reserves v Caw

Caw although on a poor run at the moment will be strong favourites to progress. New manager Andy Stevenson hasn’t really got a settled side yet but he will get there.

The home side are languishing in the bottom half of the Second Division and would have to show a big improvement if they are going to get anything here.

Prediction: Caw

Lisahally v Douglas Bridge

The Strathfoyle men are having a tremendous season currently unbeaten in Division One, they have some players who would grace the Premier Division and they are playing with no fear.

The Bridge to are having a decent season lying second in Division Two. They have scored five and four in their last two games so they have a decent strike force.

Prediction: Lisahally

Claudy United v Foyle Wanderers

United have lost six games in the league this season, they have no trouble scoring with Trevor McSparron hitting the target regularly but they concede to many.

Wanderers are on a winning roll they have moved into second in the Premier Division, Steve Dougherty continues to impress and was on target last week again, they should win this one comfortably.

Prediction: Foyle Wanderers

Greysteel v Lincoln Courts

Although a division apart this game will be close, the home side are vying for top spot in the First Division with Lisahally and will most definitely be playing Premiership football next season.

The wheels have come off for the Courts recently and they are languishing at the wrong end of the Premiership table, however they are capable of bouncing back at anytime, this would be a good time to start.

Prediction: Lincoln Courts

Newbuildings United Reserves v Claudy Rovers

Glenn Wallace’s side look doomed in the Premier Division with just one point, their defeat last week at Irish Street was another bitter blow and they couldn’t have picked tougher opponents.

Rovers have returned to their best form after getting their off field troubles sorted, they are a quality side and should progress with goals to spare.

Prediction: Claudy Rovers
