Victoria Hotspurs Close Gap After Back‑to‑Back Wins

Victoria Hotspurs have surged back into the title picture after a superb week that saw them defeat league leaders Attard FC 1–0 on Sunday before repeating the scoreline midweek against Żejtun Corinthians FC. The two narrow but deserved victories have lifted the Hotspurs to within two points of first place, injecting fresh momentum into their campaign.

Behind them, Lija Athletic FC climbed into third after a hard‑earned 2–1 win over Mqabba FC, continuing their steady rise up the table. Meanwhile, Senglea Athletic FC’s impressive winning streak came to an abrupt halt with a 3–1 loss to Żejtun last Friday, a result that reshapes the battle among the chasing pack.

With form fluctuating and the margins tightening, another crucial weekend of fixtures now awaits. Every point is becoming decisive as the race for promotion and top‑spot honours intensifies heading into the final stretch.
