The tournament will include nine matches played across both days at the Marsa Sports Club, Marsa. Five matches will be played on the opening day, followed by the remaining four matches on February 19.
Hosts Malta will play four of their six matches on the opening day, followed by two more on the second day. While Spain will play three matches each on both days, Austria will be playing two matches on the opening day followed by four matches on the second day.
