Leaders of the T&T Digicel Pro League T&TEC FC will be looking to complete a double over DirecTV North East Stars FC, and stay clear at the helm of the standings, when the second match of a double header in Round Three, Match Day Two action, kicks off tonight at the Mannie Ramjohn Stadium, Marabella, from 8 pm. All eight teams will be in action with two double headers scheduled to kick off at 6 pm. The first fixture at the Marabella venue will see bottom Police take on Adam's Construction San Juan Jabloteh. The other venue, the Larry Gomes Stadium in Arima, will host St Ann's Rangers against second place W Connection at 6 pm, before the feature encounter between the "Electricity Boys" and North East Stars. The last time T&TEC and Stars met in December, the two teams were made to settle for a goalless draw. T&TEC, however, managed a come-from-behind win in the first match of the season against the same opponents, thanks to an equalizer from Sylvester Teesdale and the winner from Anthony Noreiga.
A draw for T&TEC can see the team overtaken by W Connection who are in action against a struggling St Ann's Rangers. W Connection looks the favourite to take all three points as the team came away with victories, first 2-1 and then 1-0, on the two occasions that the teams met during the league campaign. In the second match at the Larry Gomes Stadium, reigning champions Defence Force, who have contested only 12 matches this season will face Caledonia AIA, which has contested three matches more. The "Tetron Boys" started its campaign late and only contested its Round One Matchday One match last month against Caledonia, but walked away with a 2-1 win. It was a reversal of the 3-2 win for Caledonia against the same opposition when the teams played in the Round Two Matchday Two fixture in December. All of the T&T Pro League clubs, excluding T&TEC, will be seeking to use the opportunity to prepare for the Round of 16 FA Trophy matches, which takes place on Sunday.
