Churchill Brothers vs NEROCA Prediction

Both teams are struggling at the moment. There is not much to separate the two sides as both of them are not scoring enough goals and leaking goals defensively as well.

However, Churchill Brothers will have a slight psychological advantage over NEROCA courtesy of their superior head-to-head record and they also have won six of the last seven meetings between the two teams.

Prediction: Churchill Brothers are expected to edge out a closely-fought victory
