The ES Tunis & Monastir managers M. Chaabani and L. Chabbi are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Ligue 1 league table.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
