Marsaxlokk's results here at Ta'Qali National Stadium in the Premier League have been very modest with 1 victory, 2 draws and 4 defeats. When Marsaxlokk hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Gzira United, Hibernians and Birkirkara), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

The Marsaxlokk club members got no joy from their last match, also played here at Ta'Qali National Stadium: A 1-2 defeat against Valletta (placed 8th). Heartbreak for Marsaxlokk in their last match as Valletta's Zammit scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
A 1-1 draw away before that, with Floriana the opponent.Take note: 8 of the latest 10 league matches from this football club have seen goals scored by both sides.
The Marsaxlokk fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 7 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.
