Season ticket holders haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Wikki Tourist languishing in the 14th position so far. The guesting MFM will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Wikki Tourist and MFM.

It's quite the trip for MFM when visiting Wikki Tourist as the cities are 1000 kilometers apart.
