Unbeaten in five recent games, the Spartans of Hamrun are piqued for another expected victory, having avoided defeat in six recent games. The Spartans showed class against the Hibbees in a vicious contest that threatened to blow over. Hamrun held a comfortable 2-0 lead till the closing embers, where the Hibbees clinched a consolatory goal through a penalty.
