Greysteel v Lincoln Courts

The home side showed improved form last week and when they are at full strength they are a match for anyone in the division. However they have lost their first two league games.

Can this be the Courts’ year? They were impressive in their win over previously unbeaten Ardmore which now means that they are joint top of the table. They have to be the favourites to win this one.

Prediction: Lincoln Courts

BBOB v Foyle Wanderers

Manager Don Olphert will have been pleased with his sides performance last Saturday. They played some good football in that one with the experience of Graham Philson and Stuart Moore shining through.

Wanderers last season’s champions have got off to a flyer in defence of their title another side who like to knock it about, and the old boys will have to keep a tight watch on Robbie Godfrey.

Prediction: Score draw

Lisahally v Drummond

The Maydown men have had a mixed start to the season winning one and losing the other. However they are a decent side and very hard to beat on their home patch. They had four different players on the score sheet last week always a good sign.

Drummond score 10 last week and that shows what they are capable of. The home side will have to keep close tabs on McClean and Doherty who shared seven goals between them last week.

Prediction: Drummond
