Melbourne seek win to secure top spot in Sandals/ATL Senior League

ALBION, St James — Melbourne FC could secure top spot in the St James Football Association Sandals/ATL Senior League today with a win over Catherine Hall when they meet at Albion, starting at 3:30 pm.

Melbourne FC lead the competition with 22 points and have already secured a semi-final position, and a win today could see them claim the top position going into the semi-finals.

Third-placed Lilliput Rovers on 16 points from eight games are the only other team that can get 25 points but must win all their remaining games.

Also today, Reggae Youths will seek to rebound from their loss last weekend when they face Norwood Strikers at the UDC Field, while Montego Bay United Under-21 and Fogo United will meet at the Montego Bay Community College.

Melbourne FC have been one of the most consistent teams in the competition so far and face Catherine Hall who have not been able to sustain a run.

Melbourne FC have scored five unanswered goals in their last three games and are building a momentum with the semi-finals set to start on May 19.

Catherine Hall started the season well, winning their first two games but lost steam and are now long shots to make it to the top four.

Reggae Youths were edged 1-0 by Melbourne FC on Friday, conceding a second-half own goal, but should rebound today against Norwood Strikers, winless in their last two outings.

Fogo United, winners only twice in the last eight years, are desperately trying to avoid relegation from the top flight for the first time in decades.

They are in last place on five points but must win their two remaining games if they are to avoid the drop.

Today they face a Montego Bay United Under-21 team that is also trying to avoid the drop as well, and a win today would see them to safety.
