Lyceum vs CSB highlight Ang Liga Sunday in Laguna

Ang Liga action resumes today with a tripleheader at the football field inside the La Salle Science and Technology Complex at Canlubang.

The biggest matchup of the day is scheduled at 3pm, as Lyceum and CSB attempt to break their tie in third place and improve their postseason positioning.

Both sides have contrasting form heading into their matchup, as the Pirates are coming off back-to-back losses after running off four straight wins to start off the season. Meanwhile, the Blazers have racked up four straight clean sheets this season, although their last match was the first one that did not end up 1-0.

The other Division I matchup will pit UST against Perpetual at 10am.

The defending Ang Liga champions have struggled this season, having won just two of their seven matches so far and will need some help in order to have any postseason aspirations.

Complicating matters for head coach Marjo Allado is that regular keeper Zaldy Abraham is suspended after getting sent off in his last match for the Golden Booters.

After their loss to EAC last week, Perpetual are now the lone team without a win this season, although they did manage to finally score in this tournament. The Altas will look to try to use a good finish to this tournament as an opportunity to get some momentum for the upcoming NCAA football season.

Completing the tripleheader is the lone Division II match of the day, as National University look to extend their impressive form against Malayan Colleges-Laguna at 1pm.

The Bullpups have won all three matches so far, while the Wizards are just playing their second match of the tournament after suffering a narrow defeat to Ateneo.
