All roads leads to the TE McField Sports Centre (Annex) this Sunday at 7:00 pm when there will be a live broadcast by Cayman 27 Television of the game between defending champions Elite and the unbeaten Scholars International in the Cayman Islands Football Association (CIFA) Premier League competition.
In the early game to be played at 5:00 pm Bodden Town takes on Roma. At the Ed Bush Stadium Sunset face Tigers at 5:00 pm and Future meets George Town at 7:00 pm.
Scholars International has embarked on a goal feast since the start of the season dismissing every team they face overpoweringly.
So far the team has scored fifteen goals and the leading goal scorer of the league so far is a toss up between Fabian Malcolm of Scholars International and Kiegel Atkinson of Tigers FC.
Can Elite get tough and get past this goal-hungry, title-chasing team who has been the king of football on the island for the past thirty years?
Will the defending champions who have gotten off to a slow start find enough form to face the rejuvenated Scholars International?
These answers and more will be answered on Sunday when Elite led by captain Abijah Rivers along with the deadly Donavan Godet, Spanish -speaking Rene Carter and Jairo Sanchez, Nicholas Ebanks, brothers Jason and Jedd Ebanks, Dave Mclaughlin, Hank Parchment and Joseph James in goal show how well they can face up to the defense line of Encumba Brown, Phillip Berry, Romeo Thomas and Jermaine Brown in goal backed by the frisky Chris Douglas, Nahun Rodriquez, striker Fabian Malcolm, Roy Forbes, Leon Whittaker and Kingsley Wellington.
Scholars International has gained twelve points from four games and is leading with five points ahead of Tigers who have seven. George Town, Elite and Sunset are on five points each, Bodden Town on four, Future and Roma on three apiece.
