Only a few games have been played in the Crystalbet Erovnuli Liga so far, with Norchi Dinamo placed 8th and Torpedo Kutaisi sitting in the 10th position.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
3-1-2 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Torpedo Kutaisi when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those six matches are 12-7 (scored/conceded).
