Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Yarmouk & Al Fahaheel face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Emir Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Yarmouk and Al Fahaheel.

Yarmouk's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 2-3 versus Al Fahaheel.
A Premier League defeat was the result before that one, 0-3 away at Al Arabi.This is expected to be a close game, with Yarmouk perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Two trips in a row for Al Fahaheel, whose manager could celebrate last time after the win against Yarmouk.
