This Saturday at 3pm, all eyes will be on the Tony Bezzina Stadium for the highly anticipated clash between Floriana and Hamrun Spartans in the 360Sports Malta Premier Closing Round.
With both teams recently challenging for major honours, this game promises to be a thrilling encounter between two of Malta’s top football clubs.
Floriana are still seeking revenge for last season’s painful 5-0 defeat to Hamrun, a result that cost them the league title, which was ultimately claimed by the Spartans. That heavy loss has been a source of frustration for Floriana, and they’ve struggled to overcome Hamrun in the matches since. In fact, their first meeting this season ended in a draw, followed by another defeat, this time 2-1 to Hamrun.
Both teams head into the match with no suspended players, so they will be fielding their strongest line-ups. In the Closing Round, Hamrun have been in strong form, winning their first two matches. Floriana, on the other hand, started the round with a dominant win against Naxxar but were shocked by a surprise defeat to Melita in their most recent outing.
In addition to the on-pitch drama, both teams are also waiting for clearance to sign Bolivian international players who are expected to travel to Malta soon. Their arrival could provide a further boost to both sides as they continue to fight for supremacy.
Floriana have already made their mark by winning the Opening Round of the 360Sports Malta Premier, so they will be eager to bounce back and prove themselves against Hamrun. Meanwhile, the Spartans will be looking to maintain their perfect start to the Closing Round and continue their march towards their 11th title.
