2nd position in the Premier League table for Hibernians so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 5th-placed Balzan visits.

This stadium uses grass, unlike Balzan's home stadium. The visitors last 31 games on grass have ended in 16 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses. There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
