FIRST PLACE DECIDED, DOG FIGHT IN THE OFFING

No team is assured of the Cup after Sri Lanka Rugby decided on a playoff between the first and second teams and followers will be waiting to see whether Kandy SC which objected to the “extra match” will consent to the playoff should they end up second in the League.

Overall all the teams are beaten while the Cup front runners are the defending champions, Kandy SC, CR and FC and Havelocks while CH and FC has only an outside chance.

On Saturday Police SC will host Army SC at Police Park with both sides now battling for the Plate.
