Caledonia, Central FC lock horns tonight

Granted results go in its favour last evening, Caledonia will have the opportunity to narrow the gap between its position in second and runaway leader Defence Force, when it faces a test in the plucky Central FC, in a Digicel TT Pro League second round, match day six fixture.

The match is scheduled for a 5 pm kick off at the Ato Boldon Stadium, Couva. Reigning champion W Connection faced Defence Force last evening, and a win for the latter, which sits third would have put them within a point of current runner-up Caledonia. If Connection took a win, it would also give Caledonia the chance to go within six points of Defence Force.

Both teams are off positive results in league competition two weeks ago. Caledonia eased past Police FC 3-1, while Central FC held on to a 1-1 draw with Defence Force. However, in the back of Central FC’s mind will be the 5-2 crushing loss it suffered to the CFU Club Championship winners in the closing league match of 2012.

T&TEC and North East Stars were also in action last evening. Only one match is scheduled for this evening as St Ann’s Rangers and Police FC’s fixture has been postponed to a date to be announced. Police was exempted from action this weekend due to the players’ professional engagements during the Carnival season.

Today’s fixture
• Central FC v Caledonia AIA, Ato Boldon Stadium, Couva, 5 pm

NB. Fixture between St Ann’s Rangers and Police FC has been postponed to a date to be announced.
