Season ticket holders at Shahid Dastgerdi Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Saipa languishing in the 13th position so far. The guesting Tractor Sazi will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Saipa has the fewest scored goals (9) in Persian Gulf Pro League
- Tractor Sazi has the fewest dropped points from leading position (0) in Persian Gulf Pro League
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.

Saipa manager E. Sadeghi and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Aluminium Arak (placed 7th) in the Persian Gulf Pro League. Ahead of that match, Saipa lost 0-1 at home to Gol Gohar.
M. Heydari was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Aluminium Arak after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.
