Quick DCU/Harbour View Preview



The long dark days away from RFK for United's offseason are nearing an end. A late goal leveled things in Jamaica last week, so what should we look for this evening?

The highlight I think will be our first evaluation of how an Emilio/Neil will function over a longer period due since Jaime Moreno remains out with lingering hamstring injury picked up last week.

While I don't expect an enormous crowd, if the Barra/Eagles can get things rocking and make all our newcomers excited to be in front of the hometown support I think we could see some fun attacking soccer.

All in all, what this match really becomes is the first mental litmus test for United. I don't think there are many who would suggest that Harbour View fields a more skilled squad. What this game may boil down to if things stay tight later in the game is whether the new pieces have come together as a unit.

My humble prediction: 3-1 United with the third coming late when Harbour View is pressing.
