uhlsport HAMPSHIRE PREMIER LEAGUE

Like last weekend, we have one League Cup match and otherwise a pretty full set of league fixtures. The cup match is between holders Crofton Saints, new leaders of the Senior Division, and fourth-placed Locks Heath, at Crofton's new home in Gosport. This will be Locks' sixth away game on the spin. In the Senior Division, the only team in the top four who are playing are AFC Shirley, who are at home to Southsea Sports. The teams just below them have some tricky away trips. Liss Athletic, in fifth, with one win in seven league and cup games, travel to Bishops Waltham Dynamos; Hedge End Rangers, in decent form. travel to Broughton; and Denmead, winless in five, travel to Meon Milton. At the other end of the table, bottom-placed Andover Town hope to continue their improved form with a home game against Moneyfields Res, and third bottom Liphook United are at mid-table Whitehill & Bordon. In Division One, leaders Overton United hope to notch their eleventh win in eleven games at home to Mob Albion, closest challengers AFC Netley host Headley United, who moved off the bottom last weekend. Silchester Village are now third and they have a tricky game at Rushmoor Community this time out. Sixth play fourth as BTC Southampton host Nursling & Shirley. After last Saturday's defeat to BTC, Hedge End Town, in fifth, will be looking to get back on track as they travel to Whiteley Wanderers, who celebrated their first win in a while last weekend.  That win was over Sway, who host Twentyten in a bottom five clash. Last-placed Paulsgrove are at home to Hayling United, who suffered their first league defeat in five last Saturday.

Almost a full league programme this weekend - the only cup game is our uhlsport League Cup, an attractive one at Sholing where two top-six Senior Division clubs play each other, it's Hedge End Rangers v Liss Athletic. In the Senior Division new leaders Hook have a tricky trip to Bishops Waltham Dynamos. Crofton Saints are second and will hope to recover from their defeat at Hook last weekend as they travel to last-placed Andover Town, who are on the up having won their last three league and cup games. Third-placed Locks Heath have just played three away cup games in a row (all won) but they are back in league action this Saturday - again they must travel, this time to the team just below them, AFC Shirley, in a big game. The rest of the matches all offer opportunities for teams from the bottom half of the table to improve their position, and, with only six points separating eighth and fourteenth, all sides will need to be on top form, as the table could look very different on Saturday night. Stockbridge travel to Whitehill and Bordon, Liphook United travel to Moneyfields Reserves, Southsea Sports entertain Meon Milton, and Broughton are at home to Denmead. In Division One leaders Overton United will be looking to make it ten wins out of ten as they host third-bottom Paulsgrove. AFC Netley are level with them on points, but have played a game more, and have a difficult task this weekend as they play at Nursling & Shirley, who are third. Another notable game is at the NormRod as Hedge End Town, who have risen to fourth after a good run, play BTC Southampton, in sixth, who have games in hand as they haven't played a league game this month.  Silchester Village, in fifth, travel to Twentyten, who have had some good results recently, and two teams in mid-table meet as Rushmoor Community play Hayling United, some contrasting form here as the hosts have picked uo one point from their last three league games, and the visitors are unbeaten in four in the league.
