Title showdown: Birkirkara FC vs. Hibernians FC
by Ayrton Galea - 25th April 2018
Defending Champions and current leaders Birkirkara FC will take on Hibernians FC in this evening's title showdown of the BOV Women's League which will decide which team will be crowned as the Champions of Malta for Season 2017-2018.
It all boils down to one final match in the BOV Women's League as Birkirkara and Hibernians will go head-to-head in a title showdown. The Stripes need just a point to secure back-to-back titles while only a victory will see Hibernians crowned as the new champions.
The Stripes are in high spirits and on pole to retain the crown as they go into the final match with a one point advantage over Hibernians FC and they need just a draw to secure the title for the second successive season.
Birkirkara are pumped up following last week's brilliant 3-1 victory against Mgarr United FC. The Stripes produced an excellent comeback to overcome an early goal to keep their title bid on track and ensured that they will go into the final match with one point clear.
On the other hand, Hibernians are also heading to this match in a buoyant mood after trashing Tarxien Rainbows FC with a 10-0 victory. This was the Paolites' second big victory following a 6-0 victory over Kirkop United FC to bounce back from the goal-less draw against Mgarr United.
This winner-takes-it-all encounter will also clash two top-scorers of the league. Raina Giusti and Dorianne Theuma, who have both played an instrumental role in their league campaign so far, have both scored twenty-one goals and are joined on top of the top-scorers' list.
The match will be played at the Charles Abela Stadium and it will kick off at 20:15. Transport from the Birkirkara FC Training Centre is available, and it will leave at 18:15. The price of the transport is of just €3 and all funds will go to the Women's Team.
We would like to encourage all the supporters to come to the stadium and support the Women's Team.
Come on the Stripes!
