Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Lokomotivi Tbilisi in 6th and Chikhura in 5th place.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
