Prithvi Navua FC will be out to dent Labasa FC’s title hopes when the two sides meet in Round 15 of the Extra Premier League at the HFC Bank Stadium on Sunday.
Navua heads into the clash looking to rebound from a narrow 1-0 defeat to league leaders Ba FC and will be hoping home advantage can help secure a positive result.
Currently seventh on the standings with 16 points, Navua knows a victory over one of the competition’s title contenders would provide a significant boost to its top-eight aspirations.
