Rewa left-back Kavaia Rawaqa is set to make his return to the starting 11 as he has fully recovered from an ankle injury he sustained earlier this year.

Rewa Coach Marika Rodu says Rawaqa brings a lot of strength to the team.

Rodu says Rawaqa has missed out five of their matches.

He says they will be banking on senior players like Simione Tamanisau, Usaia Tadu, Peniame Drova and Posiano Kalisito.

Rodu says the young players like brothers Setareki and Bruce Hughes, Tevita Waranivalu, Patrick Joseph, Anish Khem and Epeli Vulivou are also making a huge impact for their strength.

Rewa currently lead the Vodafone Premier League table with 12 points.

They have so far won 4 of their 5 matches.

Suva are placed second with 8 points while Lautoka is 3rd with 7 points.

Ba will face Lautoka on the 15th of this month at Churchill Park, and then meet Nasinu on the 18th.
