Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Al-Shabab Club & Al-Musannah face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Sultan Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
