Floriana vs Marsaxlokk tips and predictions

Outcome not obvious in Premier League battle; stalemate up for debate

There's not much between Floriana and Marsaxlokk in the Premier League. The hosts are in fifth place with 18 points, compared to their opponents who are in tenth place on 13 points.

All results are in the runnning here so be cautious when looking into this one. With both sides looking strong in defence, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away with.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Having created something of a fortress against pressure, Floriana haven't conceded at all during their latest 3 matches and Marsaxlokk have been impressive defensively on the road. They have let in an average of 0.5 goals per game over their last 10 matches away from home.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, one of the last 3 has ended in parity.

You might be expecting one of these sides to park the bus as the match is likely to be tight. Should it play out as many expect then the No BTTS bet could be sensible. Looking into the goal line, it's Under 1.5 goals picked as the best play given the current odds.

Floriana have drawn 8 of their last 20 matches. Further, Marsaxlokk have drawn 3 of their last 6 matches. It's not a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to keep at arm's length. A deadlock awaits after what looks set to be a close encounter.
