PRE-MATCH | IAIN DARBYSHIRE
“It’s going to be another difficult game," Iain began. “They have beaten us once this year and showed the quality they possess in that game. They’re an attack-minded team with some really good attacking players so we’re anticipating a very difficult fixture where we know we’ll have to be at our best to get three points.
“We’re joint top at the moment so every fixture and every point counts. There is always that pressure every single week where there’s a target on your back but thankfully we’ve experienced this in the past few years, so we have that to draw on with these difficult games. We’ll be switched on and be ready to do what we need to do on Sunday.
“Across the Senior Team, U19’s and U13’s, we’ve had a really successful start to the season, and we know around the festive period, it really does heat up and there’s difficult fixtures every week. We know we have built the foundations and we’re feeling positive about where we are, it’s just about stepping up each week and delivering points weekly.”
OPPOSITION FOCUS | THE NEW SAINTS
After defeating the Bluebirds on the opening day of the season via a goal from Chantelle Teale, TNS have amassed a record of four wins and four defeats, which sees them sitting in fourth position in the league standings.
In the league, they most recently overcame Briton Ferry Llansawel after coming from behind twice in the first half, with the equalising goals coming from Lexie Harrison and Caitlin Chapman, followed by a Lia Lewis strike which gave The Saints a 3-2 victory.
