Today’s top matches take on a new significance following Gzira Utd’s 4-0 victory of Zejtun which elevated them to second place in the premiership, just a point behind leaders Hamrun.
The Spartans play Balzan today where a win has suddenly become even more vital.
Long time leaders Hamrun seemed to have only Hibernians to fend off but now Gzira have powered their way into contention with a run of eight wins on the trot.
A win today will again give Hamrun their four point advantage over Gzira but then Hibernians can keep up their relentless chase for top spot if they beat Lija Utd.
This may be a season ravaged by the coronavirus pandemic with fans banned from matches but the tension on the pitch is just as sharp as ever.
Who will emerge as BOV Premier Champions?.
Take your pick. Hamrun, Hibernians or Gzira. It is still impossible to predict.
