Having beaten their great rivals Sliema in their opening match last Sunday, Neptunes are favourites to beat their neighbours San Giljan this afternoon to register their second consecutive victory.

The Balluta Bay side should be able to beat the Saints even though the latter did well to beat Exiles 8-5 in their opening encounter.

On the other hand, Sliema will be facing another tough encounter when facing Sirens who also started with a win, albeit a narrow 8-7, against Marsascala.

In the other match on today’s programme, Marsascala will be facing the national Under 20 side. It is a match where no points will be awarded to the winners.
