MANILA — After spending some time playing home games at the Rizal Memorial Stadium here, the Davao Aguilas will finally make a return to their “nest”.

Davao battles Negros at 4 p.m. at the Davao del Norte Sports Complex in Tagum in one of two Philippines Football League (PFL) games scheduled on Saturday.

Davao, currently on 24 points after 17 matches, looks to score a victory that could keep its flickering league championship hopes alive before it welcomes its new acquisitions in the upcoming transfer window.

On the other hand, Negros, which is on 45 points after 19 games, tries to inch closer to the championship as it only needs 10 points to complete a successful title defense.

Meanwhile, Laguna also makes its return to its own home, the Biñan Football Stadium in Biñan City, Laguna, hosting Marikina in an earlier tip-off at 3 p.m.
