Prishtina and Inter Club d'Escaldes get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Champions League Preliminary Round - Final fixture.

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 Prishtina and Inter Club d'Escaldes.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Inter Club d'Escaldes have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-1-2 (win-draw-loss) from seven matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Inter Club d'Escaldes have to travel 2400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
