With the Deeside Stadium pitch rapidly thawing and tonights game looking set to go ahead, Nomads will be seeking to avenge a first defeat of the season at Rhos Aelwyd in the HG league cup in September, where we lost 3-2 after winning our first 5 league games. Since that time Rhos have had mixed fortunes in the league with 3 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats in their last 7 games and they are currently 5th in the table. Nomads in 2nd spot, are 7 points ahead of Rhos and a victory would see us top the table overnight.
Since gaining promotion last season, Rhos have already proved that they are a match for anyone in the HGA on their day and Nomads players will certainly have to work hard for victory.
Best of luck Nomads.
