Competition: Malta First Division
Date: Mon 14.October
Match begins: 18:15 (UTC)
Venue: MFA Centenary Stadium (2000 seats)

The First Division league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 12th and 14th respectively.

Fgura United and Mqabba should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
