Mrbat hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 4 points and a 14th position in the Professional League table. Visiting Al-Rustaq holds 6th place with 19 pts.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
