Fred Taylor Park in New Zealand will be packed by majority of Fijians this afternoon when Ba takes on Waitakere United in the O league thriller.

Over 1,500 tickets have already been pre sold by Waitakere and the club has installed extra seating for 500 people to help deal with the demand.

There is a strong Fijian community in Auckland and are followers of Ba soccer team.

Throw in the fact that the Waitakere ranks include Fiji's Roy Krishna, a hero in the eyes of many and it appears likely that a bumper crowd will come together this afternoon.

The match is a replay of the 2007 O League final where nearly 10,000 people watched Waitakere beat Ba 1-0 and qualify for the FIFA Club World Cup on the away goals rule.

The Ba and Waitakere United match kicks off 3pm today.

Meanwhile, in a O-league match yesterday, Auckland City beat Hekari United 2-0.
