Sliema Wanderers will be targeting revenge when they take on Naxxar Lions this weekend, determined to respond to their heavy defeat against the same opponents in the opening round of the season. The Blues were convincingly beaten 4-0 on that occasion and will be eager to set the record straight as the Premier League campaign intensifies.
Pablo Doffo’s side currently sit among the top contenders after a solid season that saw them collect 26 points in the opening phase, with recent victories helping them maintain momentum in the race for the upper places. With attacking threats such as Sulahmana Bah and Roko Prsa leading the line, Sliema will be confident of delivering a stronger performance this time around. 
Naxxar, however, have already shown they can trouble the Wanderers and will aim to complete a league double, making this clash a crucial and potentially explosive encounter at the National Stadium
