The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Ma'an are in the 7th position while the guesting Aqaba worry at 11th.
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.
