This game stars two squads residing in the lower parts of the Persian Gulf Pro League, Naft Masjed Soleyman at 15th spot and Fajr Sepasi sitting at 12th. A nice opportunity for one of the participants to improve their position.
- Naft Masjed Soleyman have the most dropped points from leading position (5) in Persian Gulf Pro League
- Fajr Sepasi have scored at least twice as many goals away as Naft Masjed Soleyman have scored home.
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.

Soleyman travelled for their previous game, a trip to Shahin Bushehr that ended 0-0.

Fajr Sepasi form and stats
2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of Fajr Sepasi playing as the away team in the Persian Gulf Pro League this season.
The attacking players of Sepasi have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 222 minutes.
There might be some fixture complaints from Sepasi as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Hazfi Cup match against Aluminium Arak (0-2).
Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Mes Rafsanjan.Many goals are not expected from the visiting Sepasi as they have only managed to score 3 times from 5 away games in the league. Fajr Sepasi are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 2 goals away.
