Sairusi Nalaubu and Christopher Wasasala will play a key role as Suva aims to win their first Vodafone Premier League title since 2014.

Suva leads the VPL points table with 26 points and a win against Nadi in their final match tomorrow will secure the title for them.

Suva can also win the title if their match ends in a draw however they will have to hope that Rewa does not beat Lautoka by nine clear goals.

Nalaubu who is a police officer by profession has scored 9 goals in the VPL and is the leading goalscorer.

He has formed a deadly combination with Wasasala and together they have scored 16 of Suva’s 24 goals in the VPL this season.

The last time Suva played Nadi in the VPL, Wasasala had scored the winning goal in the 86th minute.

Suva plays Nadi at 3pm tomorrow at the ANZ Stadium and Rewa will take on Lautoka at the same time at Churchill Park.

Meanwhile, Ba plays Labasa at 1.30pm today at Subrail Park while Navua will play Nasinu at 7 tonight at the Uprising Sports Ground.
