📋 Team News: Carrick Rangers
From a largely healthy group of players, there’s just the sole fitness problem for the Carrick Rangers gaffer Stephen Baxter to be concerned with. Cameron Stewart (surgery) misses out for this game.
💭 Prediction
We feel that Loughgall may well find it hard to register a score against this Carrick Rangers lineup who we reckon should gain the upper hand.
We’re therefore tipping a good tussle with a 0-1 win for Carrick Rangers at full-time.
