Naxxar Lions visit Balzan FC for another thrilling episode of the BOV League’s Matchday 20. Balzan FC's recent downfall from the top region has been a cause of concern after a defeat in the previous matchday. However, Naxxar Lions, the current hosts, have struggled to maintain consistency and have been putting up poor performances in recent weeks. In the five previous encounters between these two sides, Balzan FC has emerged victorious thrice, with one draw and one win for Naxxar Lions, which was their latest encounter.

Recent Form: D-D-D-L-D
Last week, The Youths of Balzan FC fostered their ricochet of draws in the impressive stalemate against the Stripes of Birkirkara FC. The most resounding highlight in recent times is the 2-2 stalemate against Floriana. They went to secure an away 1-1 stalemate against Gzira United, giving the fans some hope - only for the Wanderers of Sliema to return them to losses in the 1-0 tight contest last week. Balzan’s loss to Santa Lucia was disappointing as the side was not promised a victory against Floriana, who were forced to a 2-2 stalemate last week despite heavy criticism.
