Women's NPL SA 2019 - Round 9 Preview
Salisbury Inter vs Adelaide Comets
Venue: VALO Football Centre
Date: 3/05/2019 08:15 PM
The late winner for ‘match of the round’ must be the match up of Inter v Comets. Salisbury will be sure to focus on defending this week after captain and star defender, Chantelle Ryder will be missing through a 1 match suspension for last weeks red card. With a star defender missing, Adelaide Comets have swooped the signature of Georgie Nicola from West Adelaide. With one of the best young strikers going around, Adelaide Comets will be sure to show off their new signing to the Inter defence and get redemption for their Round 1 loss. This match will have the eyes of many as the result can shake-up the league dramatically.

Adelaide University vs Metro United WFC
Venue: West Beach Parks Football Centre
Date: 3/05/2019 06:15 PM
Adelaide University will be looking for redemption following last weeks second loss to Salisbury Inter for the season. With Metro looking to continue their red-hot form over the last few weeks, they are continuing their hunt to chase down league leaders Adelaide City. A loss for Metro can really dampen their title chase as City are chasing high and leading the pack. Adelaide Uni will be looking to go one better than their Round 1 encounter with Metro which ended in a 2-2 draw. Metro though have the upper hand with reigning Golden Boot winner, Chrissy Panagaris, again leading the race with 11 goals in 8 games so far this season.
