Bua secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Tavua in the first leg of the Senior League final playoff at Subrail Park in Labasa. This win provides the Northerners with a slight edge, as they will only need to secure a draw in the second leg away from home to earn their place in the Premier Division for the upcoming season. Conversely, Tavua must win by more than one goal to capture the Senior League title and regain their spot in the top division in 2025.
