Match Preview

Leith travel to Double Hedges Rd on Saturday to take on a Liberton side they've become well-aquainted with over the past few seasons, looking to atone for a sloppy performance in last weekend's 31-40 home reverse to Edinburgh Northern. Liberto have started the season with 3 defeats, but an improved showing in a high scoring encounter at Earlston last time out saw our hosts get off the mark with a 4-try bonus point, and they will be targeting this weekend's encounter for a first victory of the season, having taken the spoils 20-17 in the same fixture at the back end of last season , in a fixture which at the time kept alive their hopes of staying in Division 2 (before the leagues were changed anyway!) while Leith will look to right some of the wrongs of the season so far. The usual clash of styles can be expected on the south-side, in what should be a exciting encounter. Get along and cheer the boys on if you can.
