PREVIEWS

-------------------------------------------------------------
DIVISION ONE: Dinot Riders v Amazingstoke Gooners,
Saturday 17th October 2009, Kick off: 19:00 CET,
at Riders Dome, Denmark.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This weekend we take our first trip of the season to the Riders Dome as the early pace setters in Division One face each other. Both sides have a 100% record so far so at least one will lose their unblemised record come the final whistle.

PRE SEASON------------------------------------------------
Last season the Riders saw plenty of goal mouth action scoring 31 goals and conceding 20 in the league. In the end
they finished in 5th position just 5 points short of the promotion zone. Their squad is very simular to last season and the goals have continued to flow this term. They have scored 7 so far in their two leage victories, were involved in a 6-2 defeat in the Trophy, and their last 2 friendlies have produced a toal of 17 goals!

Having spent 7 seasons building up to their promotion to the top flight, the N.Y.Muggers fans were very disapointed to see Dddrifter vanish half way through the season leaving them condemed to relegation. Over the pre-season the teams name was changed to Amazingstoke Gooners and they have a new manager, Prallc, who came from Colmans. There has also been plenty of player movement under the new boss. 7 players have arrived at the cost of just over 80 million whilst 5 have departed. The results have been promising though with 5 wins from 5 in all competitions putting them into the semi-finals of the trophy and 2nd in the league.

TEAM NEWS----------------------------------------------------
Dinot Riders defender Eilert Kjærsgaard is out injured but otherwise both sides are at full strength.

PREDICTION----------------------------------------------------
These are the two strongest sides in the division according to the xpert 11 VIP-stats so this game will be a tough one to call. Amazingstoke have been in fantastic form this season under their new manager whilst the Riders have the ability to score enough goals to trouble any opposition around. Amazingstoke emphatically won the earlier meeting in the trophy but this game should be a lot closer.

PREDICTION: 2-2 Draw.
