Shantel Bailey, who has scored four goals in Waterhouse’s big 10-0 win over Royal Lakes FC, should again lead the goal-hunting charge, along with Davia Richards, Lacey-Ann Murray, and Latoya Duhaney.
Real Mona should be looking towards Shanae Ashley, Taneisha Vassell, and Tyesha Nelson to lead the way for a team which has only scored four goals and conceded three from three outings.
