This weekend, the Extra Premier League will host its fourth round of matches with eight teams set to compete. On Saturday, Tavua, who have struggled in their first two outings, will look to turn their fortunes around as they face Suva at Garvey Park at 3 PM.
Sunday will feature three more matches: Nadroga taking on Nadi at 1 PM at Lawaqa Park in Sigatoka, while at 3 PM, Nasinu will challenge Ba at the Uprising Sports Complex in Pacific Harbour, and Lautoka will meet Labasa at Churchill Park.
Premier League leaders Navua FC are unable to play this weekend, as their scheduled match against Rewa has been postponed due to Rewa having six players called up to represent the national team in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers in New Zealand.
Currently, Navua leads the league standings with six points, though they will need to maintain their momentum when they return to play. Labasa and Suva follow closely behind with four points each. Meanwhile, Nadi and Nasinu both have three points, while Ba has two from two draws. Rewa and Nadroga have only managed a point each, and both Lautoka and Tavua are still searching for their first points of the season.
The excitement surrounding the league indicates a promising season ahead, as teams jostle for positioning and aim to secure crucial points. Fans are hopeful for thrilling matches that showcase the rising talent across the competition.
