St.Kitts Premier League Football Tactical Analysis

The electric press and tenacity of the Old Road jets prove to be to much of a threat for Village. No surprise village struggle to progress the ball up the field and find their star winger Dajhal is positive places due to the lack of ball playing midfielders. Tactically it’s time for the coach of Village to take some more risk in the midfield to spark some positive ball playing out the back. Old Road is a big threat with the press and movement of players throughout the attack .

Pre Match Analysis of Newtown Vs Cayon.

Both teams unbeaten in the league so far being 2 from 2, this match will be a true test of Newtown as they continue their rebuild.

Cayon are a very strong team in the air whether defensively or offensively. They are also very dangerous on the counter and play direct quickly. Newtown on the other hand a very technical and possession based team who look to wear down opponents to get their goals. There are some key match ups that can be decisive in this game. Firstly, the young promising defender Landrick Jones vs the crafty and experienced Carlos Bertie. Secondly, Leon/Yohannes vs Mervin/Jayan. An exciting battle between energy, grit and technical ability. Whoever can dominate here would dominate the game if they take their chances. In addition, Cayon may look to exploit Marvin McSheene whose defensive game isn't the best or Newtown may look to exploit the right back of Cayon whose defensive game isn't the best either. All in All this will be an exciting game as Newtown look to continue their winning streak on their home field and prove to the critics that the rebuild is well and truly on. However, Cayon having lost numerous players look to continue to show that they are a top team and a force to reckon with in this league.

Although we are late our first break down will be on the Conaree Vs Village game.

This match was high scoring match as this was no surprise because of key center backs missing Madassa Howe for Conaree and Raheem Francias for Village. Village have been very poor starters so far this season and it showed again. The inability to clear their lines and mark on corners no surprise how Conaree scored their first goal.

Poor tactical decision by coach of Conaree, Al Richards to place the young Quanieke "Mala" Clarke in an unnatural position of right back against one of the leagues top 1v1 players in Dajhal Kelly. This decision proved to be a poor choice by him. Dajhal Kelly used his raw pace and power to bypass Quanieke Clarke numerous times ultimately providing an assist, winning a penalty and scoring all from the right side of Conaree. In addition, poor substitutions who had little to no impact on the game is ultimately where Conaree lost this game.
