Swieqi United vs Kirkop United (Tuesday – Mosta Ground, 20.15)

After opening their 2019/2020 season with a 1-1 draw against Raiders Għargħur, Swieqi United obtained their first win after beating Hibernians last week.

It was a fine display from the Oranges who had three players scoring a brace – Emma Xuereb, Jade Flask and Kelly Agius Pace – together with youngster Celeste Grech who added the other goal.

Their first goal of the season was scored by Ruth Steer Chetham.

Two points behind the joint-leaders, Swieqi United will be eyeing another three points to keep the top position in sight.
Kirkop United, on their part, have endured a tough start to the season with two straight defeats at the hands of Mġarr United and Birkirkara.

Raiders Għargħur vs Mosta (Tuesday – Dingli Ground, 20.15)

After last week’s break, Raiders Għargħur return to action as they take on Mosta. The Għargħur-based team opened their season with a 1-1 stalemate and will be looking to claim their first win of the season.

On the other hand, Mosta opened their season with a defeat against Mġarr United. Like Kirkop and Hibernians, the Blues will be looking to get off the mark. 

Mġarr United vs Birkirkara (Tuesday – Mġarr Ground, 20.15)

Mġarr have scored 10 goals in their first two games with Brenda Borg leading the way with three goals after her hat-trick against Mosta.
