A trophy cabinet can never have too much silverware and both Fanja and Al Nasr know what's at stake in this second leg of the Sultan Cup Quarter-finals clash.
It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Al Nasr, who are travelling more than 1000 kilometers to play this game.
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.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Al Nasr manager Gačanin as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Muscat.
