Seba tackle Reno for Super League lead
MONTEGO BAY, St James – Joint leaders Seba United and Reno FC will meet in the feature game of the third round of matches in the Captain’s Bakery Western Confederation Super League, starting at 6:00 pm at Jarrett Park.
The former Premier League champions lead with six points each after back-to-back wins to start the competition, and both will be gunning to stay at the top.
The teams have identical statistics of three goals for and one against and will meet for the first time in two years since Seba were relegated from the Premier League two seasons ago. Reno followed suit last year.
Meanwhile, two-time defending champions Wadadah are still seeking their first point after successive defeats to start the season and will host newcomers Exidus in the first game at Jarrett Park at 4:00 pm.
After being edged 0-1 by Reno in the opening game, Wadadah went down 2-4 to promoted Petersfield FC in Westmoreland on Sunday.
Reno will welcome back national midfielder Evan Taylor, who sat out Sunday’s 2-1 win over Granville after picking up a red card against Wadadah, and will strengthen the Westmoreland team.
National utility player O’Brian Woodbine will also be in the team, as will Kenroy Hutchinson, who scored twice against Granville last week and once against Petersfield in the Westmoreland FA Knock-Out on Thursday.
Today’s Schedule:
Wadadah vs Exidus @ Jarrett Park 4:00 pm
Seba United vs Reno @ Jarrett Park 6:00 pm
Frome vs Petersfield @ Frome
Bamboo vs Prosper @ Bamboo
Granville vs Violet Kickers @ Sam Sharpe TC
