Thus having their own football pitch Hibernains play their league matches in the National Stadium in Ta’Qali, since all the Premier League matches are played there. Now-a-days this football ground is used by Hibernians for their everyday training sessions, the M.F.A. uses this pitch to play it’s first division matches on it.
