East Mucurapo Secondary have a chance to regain the BG T&T/First Citizens Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) North Zone lead today, but will need a big win away to defending champions St Anthony's College, at Westmoorings.
The "Tigers" are currently top of the standings with 11 points, three ahead of Mucurapo, who have already had their bye. Second-placed Fatima have their break today, giving "Compre" a shot at the lead.
St Anthony's are yet to lose this season, but they have stayed within touching distance in a competitive North Zone due to draws against debutants Diego Martin North Secondary and Fatima, who equalised late in Saturday's encounter at Fatima.
St Mary's College have a tough clash ahead of them on their visit to Trinity College at Moka. And Diego Martin host QRC, who are yet to pick up a point despite a number of close results.
South Zone's leading match is arguably more crucial, with Presentation College San Fernando and Shiva Boys Hindu College locking horns at Penal for the top spot on the standings. The teams are locked on 12 points each, with "Pres" ahead only on goal difference. That means a victory for either party will hand them a clear lead.
St Benedict's College can gain ground with a win against Princes Town at La Romaine, while Naparima College are favoured against Moruga Composite at the Manny Ramjohn Stadium, in Marabella.
The other zone in action today is East. That zone continues to be very tight, but El Dorado East will have an eye on stretching their lead. They travel to meet Toco, who have been woeful this season so far. El Dorado can also benefit if St Augustine and San Juan North Secondary play to a draw, at St Augustine.
Arima North Secondary will fancy their chances of beating Trinity College East, at the Larry Gomes Stadium, in Malabar, Arima. Trinity have been banned from using their Sixth Form players by the SSFL, and the matter is set to go before arbitration.
