The Suva team is determined to finish the Skipper Cup season on a high note as they prepare to face Nadi in the final round this weekend.

While speaking to fijivillage Sports, team manager Ulaiasi Butukoro says their main focus this week is on discipline, accuracy, and improving their defence, especially their set-pieces such as line-outs and scrums.

Butukoro says despite a close loss last week, they have taken positives from the performance and aim to bounce back stronger.

The manager says their fitness and conditioning remains strong, with other players stepping in to add energy and depth.

He is also encouraging fans to come out and show their support for the team this Saturday.

Suva plays Nadi at 3pm this Saturday at Bidesi Park in Suva.

In other games, Ba plays Naitasiri, Tailevu meets Macuata, Lautoka faces Nadroga, while Vatukoula takes on Malolo.

All Skipper Cup games are at 3pm Saturday.
