Southampton Rangers will look to complete a morale-boosting week with a win in their make-up league match against Somerset Eagles tonight at Somerset Cricket Club.

It has been a fruitful seven days for the club, who won in convincing fashion against tonight's opponents at the same venue just last week, and will be looking to move up the Premier Division table with what will be a valuable the three points.

The side's 4-1 win in the Friendship Cup meeting could mark a change of fortune – one that coach Keith Jennings is banking on.

While that game was a knock-out clash with little bearing on the bigger picture, Jennings reckons the psychological edge gained by his side from that encounter could be the kick start his side needed.

"Last week's game may have some sort of bearing, maybe psychological if anything and the win should have my players up and ready to go in search of another win," said Jennings.

"Tonight's game is very important because we want to get the points to get away from the bottom."

Rangers are currently third from the bottom and one point above Eagles, who have two games in hand over the rest of the league teams.

Given how the two sides have got on thus far in their respective campaigns, the match is more of a six-pointer and will give the winners some much needed breathing space heading into the Christmas interval.

For Jennings, the match is a chance to make amends for mistakes earlier in the season and move clear of those close to them.

And regardless of other results around the league, the boss wants his men to focus on their own tasks at hand rather then evaluating what can be done should they fail to get points.

"We don't want to be sitting on the bottom in the second half of the season, so this game will go a long way in getting us to the break in a good position.

"We have a certain goal of accomplishing so many points in our next three games and hopefully we come to this target and maybe even exceed it.

"We aren't worrying about anyone else, we want to concentrate on what needs to be done for us to remain in the top flight and get the necessary results.

"To me, we are about two or three games behind where I thought we would be, games we should have won but didn't and things of that nature.

"There were some games I expected to get a point out of, we didn't get and some games we should have won were draws, so we have to go out and make up the ground and whatever the other clubs are doing isn't really our concern.

"The main focus is on us and what we need to do."
