---------------------------------------------------------------------
DIVISION TWO: chertseychoppers v Ross County Reserves, Saturday 16th August 2008.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This week we preview another clash at the top of Division Two as the chertseychoppers in their debut season host early pace setters Ross County Reserves.

THIS SEASON------------------------------------------------------Its been a terrific debut season for chertseychoppers. A tremendous cup run saw them reach the semi-finals of the Norfolk Trophy, and even then they were only denied a final place by a late Dutch Warriors equaliser. In the league their form has been good too. They currently lie 3rd having won 3 of their opening 5 games - a record made more impressive by the fact that 4 of their games so far have been away from home!

The Ross County Reserves have an unblemished league record this season having won all 5 of their games so far - HM Gunners, Hotshots and White Riot are the only teams in the past that can match that record - only Hotshots in season 3 managed to win their first 6 league games. Their wins have been convincing ones too, having netted 16 goals already this season. They reached the quarter finals of the Norfolk Trophy before falling to their manager MacLeod's only defeat so far against tomorrows opposition.

2008-07-23 19:00 Cup match chertseychoppers - Ross County Reserves 2 - 0

TEAM NEWS--------------------------------------------------------The choppers will be without veteran new signing Justin Algernon through injury

Mixed injury news for Ross County as Midfielder Willy Hadley is injured but Kirk Morrison should be available having shaken off a knock picked up last weekend.

PREDICTION-------------------------------------------------------A game of goals can be expected from this one with the two teams who have scored the most goals this season in direct confrontation. The Choppers have looked quite weak at the back and that may cost them against a Ross County side in red hot form. The Choppers did extremely well to defeat their opponents in the Trophy earlier this season, but Ross County will probably prove too strong this time round.
PREDICTION: 3-1 Ross County.
