A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Merani Martvili fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and Aragvi Dusheti's 10th place in the table will show on the pitch.
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!
These teams have little in common geographically as Aragvi Dusheti have to travel 2200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
