Season ticket holders at Stadioni Erosi Manjgaladze haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Samtredia languishing in the 8th position so far. The guesting Lokomotivi Tbilisi will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
