It's game two of the Persian Gulf Pro League season and everything to play for. Read our full preview of Paykan-Padideh Khorasan!
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Persian Gulf Pro League match only four days ago. That game was an away game at Sanat Naft, so at least Paykan are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
These teams have little in common geographically as Padideh Khorasan have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
