Fans are in for a treat of a weekend full of exciting rugby matches this weekend as the 2023 Skipper Cup competition heads into its fifth round.

The first two teams to book their places in the semi finals for this year’s competition will also be determined after his weekend’s round.

The most anticipated match for this round will be between Suva and Naitasiri with the two teams still unbeaten so far this season.

Naitasiri has registered 4 close wins this year and it will be interesting to see how they will perform against a Suva side that has been consistently performing in the past 4 rounds.

They will also want to defend their home turf again this weekend and keep a clean sheet.

Suva on the other hand will want to keep their winning streak going but will need to work harder this weekend as they will be playing on Natasiri’s home turf.

Naitasiri will be hosting Suva at Ratu Cakobau Park with the date and time yet to be confirmed.

In other matches this weekend, Nadroga will host defending champions Nadi, Macuata will play Namosi at Subrails Park and Yasawa will take on Tailevu at Churchill Park.

All game times are yet to be confirmed.
