Naxxar Lions vs Melita San Giljan Prediction: At Least Three Goals Expected

Naxxar Lions clash horns with Melita San Giljan ahead of Matchday 7, with compiled losses in the league relegating the two teams to the bottom of the table. The need for triumph cannot be overstated, with the two sides playing desperately to reduce the deficits in the goal. On the visiting side, Melita would be expected to keep up appearances despite playing under strange clouds.

Recent Form: W-L-L-D-L

The Lions of Naxxar have compiled four points in the last five league showings, facing humiliation against Hamrun Spartans the previous week in the 6-0 embarrassment at the Ta'Qali Grounds after the 3-3 stalemate against Zabbar Saint Patrick. Their 3-4-2-1 was run entirely through, and while they re-strategise on the boards, their bottom spot needs to be improved as soon as possible.

Last Five Matches: W-L-L-L-D

Saint Julian has been disappointing, with four points in the last five games. Last week against Sliema was expected to end in further hopelessness, but surprisingly, they pulled a four-goal thriller, sharing the spoils equally in a 2-2 full-time reading. 

Melita has played four games away from their home, winning one, staking two stalemates and suffering one loss.

The last three meetings between the sides produced two wins for Naxxar Lions and one win for Melita. Two games produced over two goals, while one one produced a BTTS.

The two sides have a long history of antagonism, with bragging rights given to either side on exclusive occasions. Our best bets are:

• Over 2.5 goals at 1.63 odds from 1xbet.
