MATCH PREVIEW: Week 9

GOLD COAST vs ALLIANCE- The Suns are on a 4 game winning streak including wins over established opponents like Burud Town, Alamo City, and Capital District. So naturally the club has to be the favorite in this one. The Lions managed to get a win last week, but really needs a big win to begin to make a name for itself.

GATEWAY UTD vs PENNSYLVANIA- The Saints have dropped to third place in the standings even though the club has lost only once so far in 2011. The Stoners have lost 2 straight games by a margin of 8 points. The addition of Juan Pablo Angel might be just what the doctor ordered.

UNION SC vs CD GUNNERS - The Blues come off a bye week in search of a 4th straight win. However, the easy part of the schedule is over and now the club will have to figure out how to score more. The Gunners have been hit by the injury bug but are clinging to a playoff spot currently. Union SC has a slight edge over the Gunners in the all time series.

ALAMO CITY vs SECOND CITY- The match of the week features the 6-1 Stars against the explosive Battle who have won 3 of their last 4 games. Alamo City has made some bold moves and has picked up some major players off the transfer window. The verdict is out on whether they will perform.

HILLCREST UTD vs PN RANGERS - Winless. Poorly created and now abandoned clubs, this match couldn't be less interesting.
