Hibernians and Mosta shared the spoils in a goalless draw in a clash between two teams desperate for points at the Centenary Stadium on Sunday.
The Paolites are now fifth on 17 points while Mosta join Gzira United and Valleta on the 11-point mark as the three teams now share the fourth place from bottom.
The two teams failed to impress with shots at goal being few and far in between. The best chances fell at the feet of Jurgen Degabriele whose freekick early in the second half was turned into a corner by Akpan and late in the game, the Mosta goalkeeper turned into another corner a Rodney Antwi effort.
