The Southern Crusaders and Atlas UTC Knights will lock horns in the third and fourth match of the ECS T10 Malta at Marsa Sports Club on Monday.
The Southern Crusaders finished last season’s group stage in second spot. Their tournament ended on an unimpressive note with a semi-final defeat to eventual champions Marsa CC.
Meanwhile, Atlas UTC Knights were the only unbeaten side last season with seven wins in the group stage. Their only defeat came in the final against Marsa CC. The runners-up will aim to go one better this time to have their hands on the silverware.
