THE LEAGUE TABLE
After years of following the GCFA week in, week out, Hugh Dunnit brings his take on today’s fixtures. These predictions aren’t about form charts or guesswork — just experience, league knowledge, and how games like these usually play out on a Saturday morning.
Fixtures
Bearsden v Ls Memorial
Bearsden AFC have taken one point so far this season and carry a -56 goal difference. It’s been a difficult introduction to the GCFA for the league’s newest side.
They host an LS Memorial team who have already lost seven matches, making this a fixture where both sides will be looking to add points as the schedule resumes.
Hugh’s Prediction – Bearsden AFC 1 Ls Memorial 4
Rosebank United v River Nevis
The “games in hand” fixture. River Nevis sit 5th having played 13 matches, while Rosebank United are 7th with just 7 games completed.
Despite the gap in league position, the points difference remains manageable due to Rosebank’s backlog, while River Nevis will be looking to turn fixtures into points as the table begins to tighten.
Hugh’s Prediction – Rosebank United 2 River Nevis 2
Westhill United v Glasgow Medics
Westhill United are averaging over five goals per game, the highest scoring rate in the division. They face a Glasgow Medics side currently sitting 9th, who have conceded just 24 goals — one of the stronger defensive records in the league.
The Attack vs. The Wall: Westhill vs. Glasgow Medics
Hugh’s Prediction – Westhill United 3 Glasgow Medics 1
Burnhill FC V Banknock FC
Burnhill sit 3rd in the table and come into the fixture with a clear goal-scoring advantage. Banknock AFC are 11th, with one win so far this season, and have conceded 40 goals.
Battle Of The Bs – Burnhill v Banknock
Hugh’s Prediction – Burnhill 3 Banknock 2
Cambuslang FA V Queens Park SFC
A glance at the games-played column makes this one stand out. Cambuslang FA have completed just 8 fixtures — five fewer than Queen’s Park SFC — yet the points gap between the sides is only four.
Cambuslang’s return from a smaller number of games keeps them within reach near the top end of the table, while Queen’s Park sit inside the leading group as fixtures begin to balance out.
The Big One: Cambuslang FA vs. Queen’s Park SFC
Hugh’s Prediction – Cambuslang FA 2 Queens Park SFC 2
Conference fixtures return this weekend, with games across the table as teams pick up the season again.
