Week 3 PREVIEW

Tomorrow Week 3 of Curtin League Season 1-2009 will proceed. An interesting weekend for the Curtin footballers as the league will take 3 weeks break after that due to tuition week free (can we consider this like the international break in EPL and other Europe leagues?-haha).

O well, lets see who plays who this weekend.

Week 3 will start with top-2 teams playing each other. They are both gained full points so far from 2 matches, and leading the league with 6 points. Sabah FC will play Kelkatu FC on saturday 3pm. Sabah now on top of the league with 1 goal different margin ahead of Kelkatu, from their success of beating Galacticos 4-1 last week. Kelkatu beat Galacticos 3-2 a week before that. They had also scored 12 past opponents previously-Borneo and Crazy Stone were the victims. Who will win? Lets the ball do the talking tomorrow. But obviously whoever wins will lead the league for quite some time. And a draw will re-open the title challenge back to 5 teams.

Another saturday match will also determine the rough picture of the teams fate in the league this term. Galacticos and Borneo FC are all pointless at the moment. Galacticos lost to Kelkatu, and Sabah, after the hard-fought game in both. Borneo in the other hand were beaten by Sabah and Machanz, 12-1 and 17-0. Definitely Galacticos will be the favorite for this game, but remember the ball is round.

On sunday, D Eagles will play Crazy Stone. D Eagles is now eyeing their first win in the league after becoming a draw-master so far. They drew with Machanz and Trinity, where both teams are title challenger candidate early in the season. Crazy Stone will struggle to avoid more balls into their net as they had conceded 27, and scored none. I would predict the scoreline will be somewhat similir to Crazy Stone vs Trinity before.

The league will take the rest with another tight match between 2nd and 3rd placing for last season, Trinity vs Machanz. They had both drew with D Eagles, and won BIG against Crazy Stone and Borneo respectively. They are really desperate to install a win from this match to stay in the race for the league title. A draw will be loss-loss situation for both side as they might brushed further away from the top.

Prediction anybody? Put it in the comment.
