Match Preview

Following the break for cup action, and a chastening defeat to North Berwick, Leith return to league action this weekend with a visit to Double Hedges to take on familiar opposition, Liberton RFC. The South Edinburgh side are still looking for their first victory of the season, and given the familiarity of a visit from Leith will likely be targeting Saturday's game as an opportunity to get their season off an running. Leith on the other hand go into the game off the back of two wins, over RDVC and Dalkeith, following our own autumn slump. The usual tight affair in the 1pm KO at Double Hedges is likely, so get yourselves along to the game and cheer on the Leithers! Your support goes a long way in getting the boys over the line as ever.
