This Saturday the prestigious Sentinel Cup takes centre stage with four quarter-final ties down for decision, while there are two games in the Premier Division.

Sentinel Cup

Eglinton v Glendermott

The Villagers have got off to a good start to the season, they have some excellent players and they quietly fancy themselves to challenge for all competitions.

Glendermott have a settled side who always give of their best although with so many sides in the Waterside area they find it difficult to attract quality players.

Prediction: Eglinton.

Drummond v Ballykelly

This could be classified as a derby game, the Roesiders had a good win last Saturday and they will want to build on that, they are aa well organised outfit and will improve as the season progresses.

The Kings Lane men put up a good show even though they lost against title favourites BBOB last week, there should be a few goals in this one.

Prediction: Drummond.

Ardmore v Burnfoot

Damien McGee’s side are the holders and they will be determined to retain the trophy, they have been very impressive in their opening few games and it will take a good side to beat them.

The visitors are in the first division and they can always be relied upon to give anyone a game, however they couldn’t have picked tougher opposition.

Prediction: Ardmore.

Lincoln Courts v BBOB

This is the second time these two have met this season, in their last game the Old Boys won comfortably and they haven’t looked back since with their confidence sky high.

The Courts have struggled in some games so far and they will need to show a big improvement if they are to progress.

Prediction: BBOB.

Premier Division

Caw v Tullyally Colts

Caw were back at full strength for their drawn game last Saturday and if they can steer clear of injuries then results should improve they certainly won’t want to be involved in a scrap for survival.

Tullyally’s main aim this season is to cement their place in the Premier Division, they play some quality football and have a couple of lethal players up front who know where the net is.

Prediction: Caw.

Newbuildings United Res v City Colts

The home side were disappointed not to get something from their game at Drummond last week, they rarely have the same side two weeks running and that doesn’t help.

The Colts are becoming known as the draw specialists however they are not far short of turning those games into victories and they may win this one.

Prediction: City Colts.
