Preview - Day 20 Valletta vs St Andrews Published on: 28-01-2017



Following a narrow win over rivals Birkirkara, Valletta cannot afford to drop any points in the clash with St. Andrews in their bid to keep the pace with leaders Balzan and second-placed Hibernians. The Saints won just one out of the last eight matches but collected another five points in draws. However they are coming from a narrow loss to leaders Balzan in their last outing.
 
Making his debut for St. Andrews should be Aiden Friggieri who joined the club from Sliema while Ivan Edgardo Paz should be back after serving a one-match ban. Valletta welcome back Rowen Muscat who missed the last game against Birkirkara and could have Argentine striker Maximiliano Alejandro Velasco making his first appearance for the club.
 
In the first round, Valletta were held in a goalless draw by St. Andrews.
