The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Lokomotivi Tbilisi are in the 6th position while the guests worry at 9th.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting WIT Georgia have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-5-11 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches.
