Humble Lion seek historic semi-final spot |

LIVINGSTON SCOTT, STAR Writer Humble Lion need three points from two games to secure a historic qualification to the Red Stripe Premier League (RSPL) semi-finals, but coach Donovan Duckie said his team is not in the best of shape going to their penultimate third-round game against Montego Bay United at Wespow Park tomorrow at 3:40.pm. The Clarendon club sit fourth with 49 points behind Arnett Gardens (63), Waterhouse (54) and Mobay (52), and a win would ensure a place in the semi-finals for the first time in the club's history. Duckie said his team has been severely affected by injuries and claims that the break in the league broke their momentum. "The three-week break pushed us back because that was key in terms of momentum. That break was negative for us," he said. Duckie also feels that with a new coach at the helm and their recent success in the CFU Club Championship, Mobay will have momentum and confidence behind them when they face off. "With their change of coach and their three from three in CFU means their whole confidence level will be high, but I can tell you that will speak very little for what will happen on Sunday." Harbour View (46) and Tivoli Gardens (44) are lurking behind but the two will meet for crucial points to keep their semi-final hopes alive. Harbour View have won three and lost three since Ludlow Bernard replaced Andrew Hines as coach. They will start favourites against a Tivoli side that has lost five of their last seven matches. The fight to avoid joining relegated Barbican is on in earnest. Second-from-bottom, Reno (31) take on the demoted Barbican and will be keen on taking three points. Sporting Central (33) are two points ahead of Reno and will need to defeat Rivoli (37) to keep the Westmoreland team at arms length.
