Antrim defender Kevin O'Boyle is fully expecting the Saffrons to have a battle on their hands when they travel to bottom of the table Roscommon this Sunday for the fourth round of their Division Three campaign.

Liam Bradley's men currently lead the charge in the third tier of the NFL after three wins from three, but O'Boyle is wary of the opponents this weekend, who the players know are badly in need of a first win.

"They are in need of points, so we're expecting a battle," O'Boyle told the Irish News.

"We are going there looking to keep building momentum. It took another two points on Saturday night against Fermanagh to keep us on top of the league and continue moving forward.

"That is what we wanted from that game, what we want from every game and now we're looking to do that in the next game. It's away to Roscommon, it's not going to be easy, but hopefully we will be able to keep our momentum going against them." Tweet
