There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a David Kipiani Cup match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Shevardeni 1906.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Torpedo Kutaisi have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 4-2-2 (win-draw-loss) from eight matches.
