MBU seek win

St James-based team to meet Boys’ Town in RSPL on Sunday

TUCKER, St James – Montego Bay United will be hoping to snap a three- game winless run this Sunday when they take on Boys’ Town in their second-round Red Stripe Premier League game at WesPow Park, set to start at 3:00pm.

After leading the league at the end of the first round by three points, Montego Bay United have failed to score in their last three games, a span of 270 minutes, drawing their last two games 0-0 against lowly placed UWI FC and Cavalier SC respectively.

Despite the mild scoring drought, Montego Bay United still lead the league in scoring with 25 goals, and it is hoped that Brazilian coach Leonardo Neiva can get the team to start winning again.

Neiva made his debut on Monday night against Cavalier in Kingston after taking over the club a week earlier.

Montego Bay United will have history on their side as Boys’ Town have not scored in Montego Bay in their last six trips to Montego Bay, drawing twice, and have been outscored 10-0 over the period.

Neiva will hope Dino Williams will be fit to play on Sunday afternoon after he was substituted at half-time against Cavalier, after he suffered a cut over his left eye in a clash.

Allan Ottey and Jermaine Woozencroft are both likely to be out, both with groin injuries, while Owayne Gordon and Donovan Carey will be expected to be part of the attack.

Boys’ Town are coming off a win over defending champions Arnett Gardens last Sunday, avenging a first-round loss, but are still in eighth place in the tables on 18 points, and have conceded a joint league- leading 20 goals.

Rafiek Thomas has scored six goals for Boys’ Town so far, and is expected to lead the charge on Sunday along with Peter Keys, who got the winner against Arnett Gardens earlier this week.
