Clydesdale Western 1s take on Hillhead 1s in their first home league game this year in the Women\u2019s Premiership<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following last weekend\u2019s win against Western Wildcats, the L1s will hope to keep up the momentum in the Women\u2019s Premiership title race on Saturday when they Hillhead on Saturday from 3.00pm at Titwood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Dale Western also secured a passage to the last eight stage of the Women’s Scottish Cup courtesy of a 7-0 win over Dundee Wanderers 1s last Sunday. Their opponents for the Quarter Final stage will also be their Jordanhill rivals, but a date and pushback time will be confirmed in due course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clydesdale Western and Hillhead have already faced each other this season. The Titwood girls securing all three points after a 4-0 win at Titwood in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head Coach Derek Forsyth is likely to welcome back Bronwyn Shields to the L1s squad following a successful recovery from an injury that ruled her out of the recent EuroHockey Indoor Club Trophy campaign in Alanya, Turkey. Georgia Coyle impressed in both games last weekend and is likely to keep her place in the \u2018Dale Western squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clydesdale 1s are away to league leaders Western Wildcats in the Men\u2019s Premiership on Saturday from 1.30pm.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The M1s are still awaiting their first three points since returning to outdoor competition a fortnight ago. And Western at Auchenhowie will be stern test, especially as the Milngavie side ran out 7-3 winners in the two sides last meeting in mid-September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head Coach Ciaran Crawford returns to the dugout for the Titwood boys in a side that sees Sammy Kasto and Antony Small available following respective absences last Saturday. Jack Nairn, who impressed against Grange 1s in his competitive debut for the 1st<\/sup> XI, is also in contention to play against Wildcats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
