Promoted Mount Pleasant have enjoyed a good start to life in the nation’s top flight, sitting fourth in the 12-team table with 41 points from 26 matches.

Former champions Tivoli Gardens are on the outside looking in, seventh with 35 points — three points behind sixth-placed University of the West Indies (UW) FC.
