There is little to choose between Bromsgrove Sporting and Leamington on paper, and the Non League Premier - Southern Central encounter should reflect that balance. It has been a dominant campaign for the hosts, WWWWL over their last five and a win rate of 85.71% that few in the Non League Premier - Southern Central can match. The visitors have found the going tough on their travels, L in their last five and a win rate of just 14.29% telling its own story. The contrast in attacking output — 1.86 versus 1 goals per game — adds an extra layer of intrigue. Phil Foden was handed a free role in the No 10 position behind striker Muamba, who scored in consecutive pre-season games.
Stylistically, this is a compelling matchup. Bromsgrove Sporting favour a patient, possession-based approach, whereas Leamington are at their most dangerous when allowed to hit quickly on the counter. Schalke had only 17 per cent of the possession but, having visited the club to interview their charismatic coach Miron Muslic, that is hardly a surprise.
Neither side is short on individuals capable of tilting the balance, and the duel between the two squads' chief creators could prove particularly pivotal. Discipline at the back and sharpness in front of goal will likely tilt the balance one way or the other. The Sun claim that former Reds forward Jadon Sancho is reportedly drawing interest from Qatari side Al-Rayyan, following previous transfer links to Roma.
Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. Expect a tight, competitive affair that could easily end all square at 2-2. The ramifications of this result could ripple through the Non League Premier - Southern Central standings for weeks to come, regardless of who comes out on top. Harry Kane is the favourite to win the Ballon d’Or.
