Connection chase fourth victory
W CONNECTION will be vying for their fourth successive triumph in the senior division as the fourth round of the T&T Pro League takes place from 4 pm today.
Connection will travel to the sister isle to meet tournament debutants Tobago United at the Dwight Yorke Stadium with a chance to extend their win streak to four after defeating De-fence Force, “The Stal-lions” of Caledonia AIA and Arima Fire. Following their 9-1 demolition of the Army-Coast Guard combination, defending champions CL Financial San Juan Jablo-teh, currently in second position in the 10-team standings, will have a tough task against North East Stars at the Sangre Grande Recreation Ground. Defence Force will attempt to redeem themselves when they host Fire at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo.
Teams in the middle of the pack will be looking to leapfrog others, with fourth-placed Joe Public travelling to the deep south to face newcomers South West Institute of Football (SWIF) at the Palo Seco Rec-reation Ground, while The Stal-lions will battle South Starworld Strikers at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya, Tunapuna. And members of the national senior team will use today’s matches as their final workouts before the leaving for a four-match Africa tour tomorrow. The fourth round of the Under-20 Division will be contested from 2 pm, with the marquee match-up being the Starworld Strikers vs Caledonia tussle.
