in the second division league, after losing to Waa Banjul 1-0 in their opening

tier, and also fancy their chances of returning to the first division next
season, after their demotion to the second tier two seasons ago, following
their dismal performance in the top flight.

Hawks will play against Waa Banjul at the Serrekunda West Mini Stadium; Red
Hawks and Waa Banjul are with maximum 3 points each in one game, after beating
