Sepidrood Rasht hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 30 points and a 17th position in the Azadegan League table. Visiting Fajr Sepasi holds 11th place with 42 pts.
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!
