Hamrun and Floriana eyeing win to chase down leaders Hibs

Hamrun Spartans and Floriana go head to head today with one target. A win to narrow the gap on premier leaders Hibernians.

Hamrun are third, 8 points adrift of Hibs, Floriana are second, 4 points behind.

Hibernians were held to a goal-less draw by Sta Lucia on Saturday. That result has given added impetus to the chasing pack and both Hamrun and Floriana will be aiming to take advantage of another slip-up from Hibs.

The race for the title had looked a done deal before Christmas. Now, four draws in six games has opened wide the chase for the premier title and now Hibs, Floriana and Hamrun all have a realistic chance to be crowned champions.
