Al Sahel hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 18 points and a 7th position in the Premier League table. Visiting Kazma holds 5th place with 25 pts.
It's no vacation for neither Sahel nor Kazma as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
