The Navua football club approaches today’s Extra Premier League match against Nasinu with caution, recognizing Nasinu’s capability following their recent upset win over Lautoka. Coach Saiyad Ali emphasized that Nasinu has proven to be an unpredictable opponent over the years and cannot be underestimated. “Nasinu has done the hard work and so have we. We will not take this game lightly,” said Ali, reflecting on past encounters between the teams where Nasinu has performed well.
Navua will face the challenge of this match without two critical national team representatives, Sairusi Naulabu and Filipe Baravilala, which will require adjustments within the squad. The team is determined to respond positively and adapt to these changes.
In addition to the Navua vs. Nasinu match, other fixtures are lined up for today. Ba is set to host Nadroga at the Fiji FA Academy in Ba, while Nadi will welcome Suva to Prince Charles Park, both matches kicking off at 3 PM.
The heightened competitiveness of the Extra Premier League is evident as teams like Navua and Nasinu strive to make their mark, promising a thrilling experience for football fans. As the season progresses, there is hope for more exciting surprises and remarkable performances on the field.
