Their 23 points from 33 matches, with just 6 wins and 22 losses, paint a picture of a season filled with struggle.<\/p>\n<p>Kholifa Stars endured a similarly difficult campaign, finishing with 24 points from 32 matches. Despite recording 6 wins and 6 draws, their 20 losses ultimately proved too much to overcome. Their relegation is further marred by a weekend fixture boycott against FC Kallon.<\/p>\n<p>The battle for survival, however, continues for FC Kallon and Real Republicans. Both teams hang precariously above the drop zone, with Republicans currently in 16th place on 29 points from 32 matches.
