August 15, 2012 4:50 am

The Nadroga football team believes they have an advantage over Lautoka in their Fiji Sun/ GP Batteries National Football League match tonight.

Nadroga football president, Dhiren Lal says they have less players committed to national duty and therefore, will have the upperhand over the Blues.

“Players returning to the squad are Vineet Singh, Ratu Jone and Man Singh who were players who had to miss a game after copping red cards earlier, and they equally suitable replacements. This is an important game for us and we have prepared well.”

Nadroga is without key goal scorer Archie Watkins and defender Krishneel Dutt but Lal says they are confident they will manage in the two players’ absence.

The match kicks off at 7.30pm at Churchill Park.
