Held turns to Hibernians duo

Malta coach Siegfried Held has included Hibernians FC duo Adrian Mifsud and Miguel Mifsud in his provisional 18-man squad for next Wednesday's friendly international with Andorra at the National Stadium.

Old and the new
It marks a return to the national fold for Adrian Mifsud, although Miguel Mifsud will hope to make his international debut against the Andorrans. Held has been forced to do without several key players due to injury, with Birkirkara FC defender Michael Spiteri and Valletta FC defender David Carabott both ruled out with long-term injuries.

Injury problems
Birkirkara duo Joe Brincat and Antoine Zahra, and Valletta's Gilbert Agius are the latest additions to a lengthy casualty list and Birkirkara's Hubert Suda has yet to regain full fitness after his injury lay-off.

Malta squad
Darmanin, Muscat, Camenzuli, Chetcuti, Theuma, Ciantar, Dimech, Mamo, Said, Camilleri, Turner, Holland, Licari, Mallia, Adrian Mifsud, Miguel Mifsud, Michael Mifsud, Nwoko.
