Week 16 brings us a match on Jan 30th, where Valletta and Gudja United will play a match in Ta’Qali in a meeting of these two Premier League teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 11 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. Valletta sits at 7th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-1 draw against Gzira United. Caruana struck first for Valletta in the 81st minute, but Maxuell got the equalizer for Gzira United in the 83rd minute earning Gzira United at least a draw. Valletta is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches, while gudja United is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Sliema Wanderers. Tensior Gusman scored the first goal for Gudja United in the 23rd minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Sliema Wanderers couldn’t muster any offence and Gudja United ran away with the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches.
On Sep 25th, Gudja United hosted Valletta at the Gudja Ground in their last match together. Gudja United was victorious by a score of 2 to 0. Kisil struck first for Gudja United in the 43rd minute, then Ruslan Kisil added another in the 43rd minute In the end, Valletta couldn’t muster any offence and Gudja United ran away with the shutout win.
Gudja United is fortunate enough to have Tensior Gusman in top form. In the last 5 matches the midfielder has scored four goals. Fontanella and Caruana are the top scorers for Valletta in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
