National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Alaniya Vladikavkaz or Ufa that keep their silverware dream alive.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Ufa have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
