In-form Town too strong for Trojans
Somerset Trojans v Dandy TownThis is a match that was confirmed in an unusual manner.Town beat Southampton Rangers while Trojans advanced after Boulevard withdrew on Wednesday, opting not to play in Somerset to avoid potential gang violence.With Hornets at their peak, it may be an uphill battle for the hosts unless the city side have a bad day at the office.Skipper Jensen Rogers will have to keep his back line focused for 90 minutes and not give up silly fouls if they are to be competitive.The edge certainly goes with the in-form team who have a wealth of attacking options.Prediction: Town 3-1Devonshire Cougars v Robin HoodCougars will look to make another deep run into this competition after coming close on numerous occasions. Facing a side who are new to the tournament they should have an advantage but they will need to keep focused and not get complacent in their approach to the game.Hood will look to claim their first major scalp of the their season with a win, but they can’t sit back and defend for long spells as they will run the risk of getting run over.Their attack must also be on song as one goal won’t win this game.Prediction: Cougars 3-0PHC v North VillageThe match of the day could go a long way to how things shape up in the second half of the season for both sides.A loss for Zebras can give them added time to concentrate on their league title push, while a win for Village could see them kickstart their campaign and get back on the winning trail.In what could be a goal feast, whichever goalkeeper is on top of his game could decide the outcome.Prediction: PHC 3-2St George’s v St David’sSt George’s will be buoyed by their win over Village last weekend and will look to continue their winning ways against their Eastern rivals.St David’s may fancy their chances of advancing to the next round but will have to be wary of the threat that their rivals possess in the attacking areas.Their last meeting ended in a draw which could be the result here, although it is unlikely that result will come to fruition.Given the form of the two sides in recent weeks, tip your hat to Colts to advance to the next round.Prediction: St. George’s 2-0
