National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Floresta or Sergipe that keep their silverware dream alive.

These teams have little in common geographically as Sergipe have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
