MOTW, first weekend of December edition:
Port Moody Gunners host Tsawwassen Royals (2A - Friday): Tsawwassen must win this match to have any hope at all of catching Port Moody at the top of the table by season's end. The first match between these two resulted in a 3-3 draw out on the patch of green referred to as a 'field' in Tsawwassen. Moody comes into this match with an astonishing 46 GF in 12 matches, or nearly 4 GF per match. Their D has only allowed 10 GA all season, so the Royals are in tough offensively. With LUFC appearing to have an easier time of it this coming weekend, Moody will need to be sharp to take 3 points. MOTW?
Poco City United host Aldergrove Undivided (2B - Sunday): Lllllllllllllllllllets get ready to rumble!!!!!! With apologies to Michael Buffer, this is likely the most important match in 2B for the entire season, no matter what happens after it. Three games-played differential between them and a 9 point gap...pivotal. Poco won the first meeting earlier this season handily at 4-2, and look to make up some ground with a similar result on Sunday. This match could likely settle the table with regards to promotion eligibility, with an Alder win or a draw likely sealing Poco's fate. Nothing short of a win helps Poco, so they'll be hungry to bury Alder early. MOTW?
DFC Celtic host Coq. City Arsenal (2C - Saturday): Of their remaining matches, this is one of only two that may trip up the Celtic on their march to promotion eligibility. Though the Arsenal are more up and down than a pole dancer, they played Celtic tough in their first meeting in succumbing to a 4-3 defeat. Further, 6 of Arsenal's 7 losses have come by one goal. Arsenal rates here also due to the fact that they have handily beaten the Nationals twice, a squad sitting third in the table. No doubt the Celtic are wary of this Arsenal squad and the potential for an upset. As good as the Celtic are defensively, Arsenal have the second most GF in 2C, second only to Celtic. Surprise, surprise. Celtic can ill-afford to drop any points, though a draw would not be disastrous for them, with DMU nipping at their heels with a game in hand. MOTW?
