THE Cebu Football Association will try to get back in the winning track as they host a game against Negros Oriental Football Association today at the Aboitiz Sportsfield.
CFA bowed to Iloilo Football Association (IFA) in its last game, 2-1, but it won its game against Leyte Football Association, 5-0.

Norfa, on the other hand, also suffered the same fate under IFA as it surrendered its home game in a close match, 2-1, last weekend.
They are set to face LFA on May 21 at Leyte Sports Complex as LFA tries to win its first game having been the only team without a win in the tournament.
The last time these teams met. the match resulted to a 2-2 draw despite the fistfight from the collision between the Norfa head coach and referee in charge.
CFA will try to snatch a win against Norfa as they make use of a home court advantage.
A win against Norfa will put CFA in a comfortable third place position but still short of overcoming IFA, who is in second place with 15 points.
Negros Occidental Football Association is still soaring in first place with 21 points from their seventh straight win.
In its latest match, Nofa survived Ifa in Bacolod City, 3-2.
