THE LEAGUE TABLE
Clydebank Smfc v Camby Milan
This fixture carries importance at the lower end of the table. Clydebank SMFC have played more games than any other side (15) and are looking to add points to their total, while Cambuslang FA Milan sit 12th with games in hand. A positive result for the visitors would move them ahead of several teams around them.
Nethercraigs v Glasgow Island
Third-placed Nethercraigs host fourth-placed Glasgow Island, with five points separating the sides. Glasgow Island also hold four games in hand over the hosts, giving this fixture clear significance near the top end of the table. Nethercraigs have scored 44 goals so far this season, underlining the attacking output that has kept them in the leading group.
Clydebank Red Star v Toryglen Thistle
This fixture brings together two sides level on 13 points. Toryglen Thistle sit eighth but have played only six matches, winning four of them, and currently hold the best defensive record in the division with just 10 goals conceded. Clydebank Red Star face a side that has picked up results efficiently from a smaller number of games.
Clydeside Athletic v Rutherglen Glencairn
Fifth-placed Rutherglen Glencairn travel to Clydeside Athletic with a strong record behind them, having lost just once in eight league matches. Clydeside Athletic sit toward the lower end of the table and will be looking to add points at home as they work to improve their position.
Corinthians v Bishopton FC
Corinthians sit top of the table and come into the fixture with eight wins from 13 league games. They face a Bishopton side currently placed ninth, who have scored 30 goals so far this season. The match carries clear importance at the top end of the table.
Park Sports Project v Rossvale Huntershill
Second-placed Park Sports Project come into the fixture having lost just twice all season. They face sixth-placed Rossvale Huntershill, with points on offer that could affect positions in the upper half of the table.
