There is a festive mood in capital today as the Valletta fans are gearing up to celebrate their club's 23rd football title. Thousands of City supporters will be making their way to the National Stadium in decorated cars and double-decker buses to watch their team's final match against rivals and outgoing champions Hibernians. With a four-point lead over the Paolites with one game remaining, Valletta, who have led the Premier League for much of the past five months, have secured the championship, albeit their success was only confirmed on Friday after a protest filed by Hibernians against their 2-1 defeat to Birkirkara last weekend was not upheld by the MFA Protests' Board. Valletta's celebrations will reach a crescendo at the end of their game against Hibs when captain Jonathan Caruana will be presented with the BOV Premier League trophy. The title party will then continue with an open-bus parade in Republic Street which has also been decorated for the occasion.
