Champions Mġarr United continued their impressive unbeaten campaign in the Assikura Women’s League after earning a 1–1 draw against Birkirkara. Valeria Villegas put Mġarr ahead, but Haruhi Sekura struck for the Stripes to ensure the points were shared. With the title already secured, Mġarr’s consistency has been a defining feature of their season, and they now stand just one match away from completing the league unbeaten.

Swieqi United confirmed their runners‑up position with a composed 2–0 victory over Hibernians. A well‑taken brace from Salamatu Abdulai proved decisive, reflecting Swieqi’s strong form and disciplined performances throughout the campaign. Their ability to manage key moments once again made the difference against direct rivals.

The weekend also produced a thrilling 3–3 draw between San Ġwann and Valletta. Naila Addo scored twice for San Ġwann, with Rioco Figueredo adding another, while Valletta replied through Sarah Fenech, Molly Crowe and Ines Mohamed. Despite the excitement, the result had little impact on the standings at the lower end of the table.
