Both of these sides currently sit outside the top four, and will be desperately looking to use this match to break their way inside to top quartet.

The Blues were thumped 4-0 in their opening match against Edgeworth, however marked their first home game of the season with a 4-2 win over Adamstown in Round 2.

The Gunners are one of four undefeated teams, having come back from two goal deficits in their opening two rounds. Of those four however, they are the only to not have won a match, as they could only manage a point in both games.

 

Edgeworth FC vs. Maitland FC
Fri 1 May 7:00 PM
Jack McLaughlan Oval

Edgeworth return home for their third Friday night home game of the season, this time welcoming Maitland, and they will be hoping that the rain holds off so they can play on a less heavier Jack McLaughlan Oval than in previous weeks.

This match has the potential to produce plenty of goals, after Edgeworth defeated Charlestown 4-0 in Round 1, but lost 4-1 to Magic in Round 3.

The home side is one of two teams to have played all three games, after competing in the only match played in Round 3. They lost their Round 2 match 2-0 away to Hamilton, so combined with their two Friday night matches, Edgeworth sit in fifth position.

 

Weston Workers FC vs. Newcastle Jets Youth

There is Northern NSW PS4 National Premier Leagues football being played both days this weekend, and Weston versus the Newcastle Jets Youth is the only match to occur on Saturday.

The Jets Youth are in eighth place on a single point after a Round 1 loss to Lambton and a draw to South Cardiff in Round 2. They squandered leads in both of those matches; leaving new coach Peter McGuiness still searching for his first win with the side.
