Division One East Predictions

Blackwood v Newbridge
Blackwood are on a three match winning streak in the league after narrowly defeating Mountain Ash last time out to move into the top half of the table. They will need to be on top of their game if they are to stop the in-form Newbridge tomorrow, however. The visitors have not been in league action since Janurary 21st but they have enjoyed a great run in the Swalec Cup, securing a place in the quarterfinals and will be eager to maintain their good run.
Verdict –Newbridge by 8 points
Ebbw Vale v Bargoed
The clash of the day. This encounter will surely go a long way in deciding who takes home the One East title this season. The Steelmen have been in sensational form in the Cup and have defeated two Premiership teams on the bounce, but one of their two losses in the league were at the hands of their title rivals. Bargoed, who currently sit top, know that with Ebbw Vale having a game in hand over them, a loss here could all but end their title hopes. I expect a close battle but I think the hosts will just edge it.
Verdict-Ebbw Vale by 3 points
Rumney v Treorchy
The Zebras narrowly won the reverse fixture way back in September but go into this match on the back of two losses. Rumney have put in some good performances at home and they will need to produce another if they are to avoid their twelfth defeat of the season, as the visitors will be determined to return to winning ways.
Verdict- Treorchy by 7 points
