Arnold Clark Premierships feature match: Stirling v Watsonians

Stage two of the Arnold Clark Women’s Premiership kicks off tonight with a belter – league leaders Stirling County host second-placed Watsonian FC, live on BBC ALBA.

Carrying their points tally over from stage one, Stirling gained 35 points from their seven matches, with Watsonians winning six from their seven outings – losing only to County, 34-17.

The splitting of the league into a top and bottom four will see a further six matchdays for each team, with the Arnold Clark Women’s Premiership final – first versus second – scheduled to take place on Saturday 13 December.

Stirling will look at this match as a chance to get breathing room from the chasing pack, and Watsonians have a chance to reel the leaders in. Catch all the action broadcast live on BBC ALBA tonight – it’s a 7.35pm kick off.
