The Premier League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Burgan and Al Sulaibikhat are placed 6th and 14th respectively.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only four days ago. That game was also an away game, at Al Kuwait. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
