This is the second time the two sides will meet in the Digicel Cup final and everyone knows that they are both the powerhouses of local rugby competition.

Nadroga goes into the game defending the cup, knowing that Naitasiri will be out to dethrone them in front of their home crowd.

Naitasiri on the other hand have counted their lucky stars that they have qualified for the finals after a bad start to the season.

The Highlanders face a major setback as outside center Josateki Naisilisili who sustained a broken finger and has been ruled out of today’s clash.

But that injury hasn’t dampened their spirits, as they hope there will be a repeat of the 2010 Digicel Cup Final when they pipped Nadroga 25-24 at Ratu Cakobau Park.

The winner of today’s final will walk away with $17,000 and the runner up will get $5000.

Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama will be the chief guest at the game, which kicks off at 3.30pm at Sigatoka’s Lawaqa Park and you can catch the live commentary of this match on our sister station Viti FM.

The under 20 final between Tailevu and Nadroga will kick off at 1pm.
