Damien McGee’s side have had a wonderful season as they go for their third trophy, they have played some superb football and fully deserve to be called the team of the season. They play attacking football as their goal scoring record shows.

Eglinton were impressive in their semi final win over Roe Rovers and Sean Hargan will have them up for this one, although the underdogs that won’t phase them, this is a game not to be missed.

Prediction: Ardmore.

City Colts v Lincoln Courts

The Colts are finishing the season off well, they had a comfortable win last week and they will be looking to end the season with another couple of victories.

The Courts suffered a major set back to their title hopes with their draw at Drummond and it looks now if they mat have to settle for the runners up spot.

Prediction: Lincoln Courts.

The Strollers are almost there and they certainly would be worthy champions, they had a lot of games postponed during the season and it is a credit to them and their management that they have managed to keep winning.

The visitors are merely fulfilling fixtures and they may also not be at full strength, the home side to win with goals to spare.

Prediction: Maghera Strollers.

Dungiven Reserves v Sion

Dungiven are pushing for a top six position and that would be deemed as a decent season, they continue to bring through youth which should stand to them in future seasons.

Sion were hammered last week and they look doomed they may also not be at full strength, a home win looks the likely outcome.

Prediction: Dungiven Reserves.
