"Hamrun": In Playoffs Despite 5 Losses in 6 Games

Maltese champion "Hamrun" is remembered for its interesting result in European cups.

İdman.biz reports that the team continues to fight despite losing 5 of the 6 games it played in the 2025/2026 season.

The Maltese are the team with the most losses before the playoff stage in European Cups. Starting the fight from the first qualifying round of the Champions League, both matches between "Hamrun" and "Jalgiris" (Lithuania) ended with a 2:0 victory for the home teams. As a result, the winner was determined in the penalty shootout, and the Maltese club advanced to the next stage. But the games with Kyiv "Dynamo" in the second stage were remembered with 0:3 defeats.

After that, "Hamrun", which continued the fight in the third qualifying round of the Europa League, lost both games to "Maccabi" (Tel Aviv) this time - 1:2, 1:3. The opponent of the Maltese champion in the Conference League play-off will be RFS (Latvia). Thanks to a successful result, the "Spartans" can make history in the country's football by qualifying for the league stage of the tournament. So far, no club from Malta has had the opportunity to play not only in the decisive stage, but even in the play-offs.

It should be noted that the first match between "Hamrun" and RFS will be held on August 21 in Malta, and the return match will be held on August 28 in Latvia.
