It's early days in the First Division and both Fgura United and Mqabba are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the First Division.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
