As we are heading towards Round 5 of fixtures in Yokary Liga, the title race is becoming more and more intense with FC Ahal hanging by a thread on the top of the table. Let’s take a look at what this round of football should bring us.
FC Asgabat host FC Balkan this Saturday, as they hope to continue their good form in the early stages of the new season.
The home side have lost just 1 of their last 4 games and will try to keep up the good pace. On the other hand, FC Balkan suffered a poor start to their new campaign, as they lost 3 of their last 4 league maches.
Two teams, who have made a mixed start to their league campaign, face each other this weekend, when FC Shagadam host MERW Mary.
Both sides experienced difficulties in the opening fixtures of the new season. FC Shagadam have yet to register a win, whereas the visitors have barely managed to win their opening clash against Energetik Mary, registering 3 consecutive defeats after that success.
This Sunday, FC Altyn Asyr travel to Mary Province to face the team of Energetik Mary.
The visitors are performing quite solidly in their first fixtures from the new campaign, as they are unbeaten in their last 3 league games. Energetik Mary, however, are experiencing difficulties and will be striving for a win, that should boost their mediocre recent form.
The top two teams meet in a clash, that is bound to bring lots of excitement to the football fans.
FC Ahal are the current league leaders, although their delicate lead of just 1 point over their Sunday’s opponents, is not enough for them to feel secure. The home side isn’t willing to give away crucial points during the early rounds of the season, so we should expect an action-packed encounter between these two teams.
