Nitin Singh, the president of Suva Football Club, acknowledged the formidable challenge of facing Tavua on their home turf but remains optimistic about his team’s chances in today’s Extra Premier League match. Suva approaches the game buoyed by recent results, including a draw against Ba and a victory over Nadi.
Singh highlighted the significance of these results in establishing a solid base for their season, stating, “We are not taking Tavua lightly; the boys are very motivated and we hope to continue from where we left off in the game against Nadi.” He mentions the importance of building consistency as the league unfolds, suggesting that the team’s recent form may boost their confidence going into this match.
Scheduled for 3 PM at Garvey Park, the match is expected to be heavily attended by passionate Tavua supporters. Despite this home advantage, Singh believes that Suva’s focus will remain sharp as they strive for a crucial win. Currently, Suva ranks third in the league standings, tied on four points with Labasa, while Navua leads with six points after winning both of their opening matches.
In contrast, Tavua FC is preparing to face Suva seeking their first win of the season after experiencing losses to Nadi and Labasa. Team president Munindra Mudliar acknowledged the struggles with fitness and discipline within the team but remains optimistic as they prepare to confront the unbeaten Suva side.
Tavua’s efforts to mobilize community support and invigorate the stands at Garvey Park underline their aim to turn their season around and strengthen their fan engagement.
This match is more than just a competitive fixture; it represents an opportunity for both teams to build community backing and generate positive momentum as the league progresses.
