Western Bureau:

Former champions Glenmuir High School could join the early qualifiers for the inter-zone round of the 2006 ISSA/Pepsi/JN daCosta Cup this afternoon if they are able to improve on their first round 2-2 draw over second place Garvey Maceo in their top-of-the-table Zone I clash.

Victory for Glenmuir, which remain unbeaten after seven games - six wins and a draw, would lift them to 22 points and into the safety of the inter-zone. However, a defeat would keep them on the waiting list, while improving Garvey Maceo's (14) chance of taking top honours and the group's lone Ben Francis Knockout place.

In other key match-ups today, a battle royale is anticipated in the Zone A Montego Bay derby between second place Herbert Morrison (8) and third place Cornwall College (7) as with group leader William Knibb (13) looking a safe bet for one of the group's two inter-zone places, both teams appear to be battling for the same slot.

Another pitch battle is anticipated in Zone B where Frome Technical (18), which have already qualified for the inter-zone, will battle second place Rusea's (10), who are fighting to keep third place Anchovy (7) at bay.

With Anchovy looking a safe bet to beat bottom place Knockalva (1) in their game, a defeat for Rusea's could see the Anchovy team catching them.
