The managers Hakeem Shakir and Basim Qasim are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Iraqi League league table.

It's no vacation for neither Al Zawra'a nor Al Quwa Al Jawiya as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
