KINGSTON, Jamaica—Leaders Tru-Juice FC and third place Racing United will meet today in what is expected to be an exciting Legend Jamaica Premier League first round game at Ferdie Neita Park at 3:00pm.

Three points separate two of the highest-scoring teams in the league whose top scorers combine for almost 25 goals and the expectations are for a high intensity game.

Also today, fourth-placed Montego Bay United travels to the Edward Seaga Complex to face Tivoli Gardens; Arnett Gardens are away to last-placed Humble Lion at Effortville; Cavalier FC hosts Treasure Beach at Turner’s Oval; and Dunbeholden FC are at home to Chapelton Maroons.

At Ferdie Neita Park, Tru-Juice are the inform team in the competition and will be going after a fifth straight win, coming off a win over defending champions Portmore United.

As proficient as they have been scoring goals, Tru-Juice have been better at stopping goals, and have conceded just two goals in their five-game unbeaten run.

Tyrone Mullings who will face the team he represented up to last season, leads the goal scoring race with eight goals so far and will spearhead the Tru-Juice attack along with Daniel Roberts, the pair having combined for 12 of the team’s 18 goals scored so far.

Racing United have failed to win any of their last two games, being ambushed by Treasure Beach and were held 0-0 by Chapelton Maroons last week and will hope to rebound today.

Montego Bay United have cooled after a fast start and are winless in their last four games, playing to 2-2 draws in three of them while leading on each occasion.

Last weekend’s draw against Molynes United frustrated coach Javier Ainstein as they gave up two goals in the first 10 minutes, rallied to level the scores by half time, but failed to get the winner despite dominating the second half.

Tivoli Gardens are also going through a poor run as well, winning just once in their last five games and have slipped to eighth place but only a point off the top six places.

One positive for MBU is that top scorer Jourdaine Fletcher has scored in back to back games and has taken his tally to five so far.

Both teams have been leaking at the back however and have been conceding goals.

Meanwhile, Arnett Gardens are quietly moving up the ladder and are coming off a good win over Waterhouse FC after holding Mount Pleasant FA to a 1-1 draw. They are expected to get the better of Humble Lion who are at the foot of the table.

Humble Lion have conceded 12 goals in four straight losses and Arnett Gardens’ Giovanni Taylor who has scored seven goals so far, will be eager to face them.

Cavalier FC completed a 3-0 win over Humble Lion on Thursday, scoring twice in the remaining 15 minutes of the game that was called off on Sunday due to heavy rain. They will face a Treasure Beach team that have been inconsistent, beating Racing United, losing to Portmore, then giving up a last minute goal to draw against Dunbeholden.

Cavalier are off to yet another slow start this season, as they did last term and will be looking for a run of wins to get back into the top six.

A win for Dunbeholden will take them past Chapelton Maroons in the points table, on goal-difference. Chapelton will need to find a replacement for goalkeeper Prince Daniel Smith who was sent off in time added in their 0-0 draw against Racing United on Monday.
