OFC Champions League Group B goes down to the wire as leaders AS Central Sport taking on hosts Lautoka FC when they play at Churchill Park in Lautoka today.

AS Central Sport are heading into the final match day with a foot already in the knockout stage after two wins in the group with a superior goal difference.

Hosts Lautoka FC on other hand are facing a must win scenario coming off an upset against Henderson Eels who are still in contention for the last eight with three points after match two today.

Speaking to OFC, Lautoka coach Kamal Swamy said that it was a must win for his team knowing very well what was at stake.

“Looking at the game, we can see that we have a chance to win and qualify so that is the focus in the camp now,” he said.

“We had already talk to them about tomorrow’s game and we told the players that we have to forget about the last game to switch our focus back on the next game.

“We’ll we need to win the game to qualify for the quarterfinals. That is our aim and that’s what we are going to do.”

It’s a must win for Lautoka and we need to at least win by three goals to qualify.”

Lautoka plays Henderson Eels at 4pm.
