Football: Premier league top two to meet in FA Cup semi-finals

Corinthians and Peel to meet in heavyweight clash during this weekend's fixtures

A huge Ecap FA Cup semi-final clash between the current top two men's sides in Manx football is among the pick of the ties heading into this weekend's latest Isle of Man football fixtures.

Corinthians and Peel - who occupy first and second in the Canada Life Men's Premier League - will meet for a heavyweight clash at Ballafletcher on Saturday (21 March) in the first last-four match of the competition to take place.

Elsewhere, there will be a rearranaged Ecap FA Cup quarter-final contest on the cards tomorrow as Onchan host Rushen United with both looking to set up a future meeting with St Mary's.

That's not the only cup competition in action this weekend as the semi-finals of the GH Corlett Woods Cup are also due to take place on Saturday Malew at home to Marown whilst Ramsey Youth Centre & Old Boys (Rycob.) are at home to Douglas Royal.

Among Saturday's league ties, in Ardern & Druggan Ltd. Division 2, Colby could at least temporarily extend their lead at the top to ten points should they take maximum points at home to St George's.

On Sunday (22 March) there's a trio of matches that await in the Canada Life Women's League - Corinthians could move to within three points of the division's summit should they win against Rushen United, whilst Onchan entertain Douglas Royal and Malew welcome Union Mills.
