Bonnyrigg White Eagles’ 3-2 loss to South Coast Wolves last night at WIN Stadium kicked off round 7 of the NSW Men’s 1 NPL competition.
There are no matches tonight, but two on Saturday night and three on Sunday (see draw at bottom).
Table leaders Sydney United 58 host APIA Leichhardt Tigers at 3pm on Sunday at Sydney United Sports Centre, Edensor Park.
United are on top of the table after their win against Bonnyrigg White Eagles last weekend.
Chris Triantis, Panni Nikas, and new signing Richard Cardozo all scored, and their side has a sharp looking edge to it with the return to fitness and form of Triantis and Nikas and the addition of Cardozo.
The form of Matthew Bilic has been a big fillip for the side too, as his sweet left foot and ability to beat players on either the left or right gives Mark Rudan’s side further options.
APIA-Leichhardt bounced back from their loss to Blacktown City by beating Sutherland Sharks thanks to goals from Corey Biczo and Blake Powell.
Powell is in unstoppable form and he will be United’s main worry.
The Reds beat APIA on penalties in the FFA Cup a few weeks ago, too.
• The rest of the draw is:
Sydney Olympic v Marconi Stallions, 7:30pm Saturday at Valentine Sports Park No 2;
Sutherland Sharks v Rockdale City Suns, 7.30pm Saturday at Seymour Shaw Park;
Blacktown City FC v Manly United, 3pm Sunday at Lilys Football Centre;
Blacktown Spartans v Parramatta FC, 3pm Sunday at Blacktown Football Park.
