Match kick off 20:15, Sun 15th at the Saoud Abdulrahman Stadium
 
Al Sailiya head coach Sami Trabelsi
“We haven't had a lot of time to prepare and we are trying to recover the maximum number of players back from injury. We will be playing against a very organised and tactical side. We are also hoping to play at a good level in order to get a good result.”
 
“Mathematically we can still get into the top 4. We have five games which means 15 points. It's difficult but it's not impossible. Last year we didn't have top 4 as a target but we got there. This year we will look to take maximum points and try and be as close to the top as possible because then we will have to play less games in the Emir Cup.”
 
“Kharaitiyat are a good team. They defend well and attack on the counter. It's not easy to score against them. They have a solid defence. They don't give a lot of space to their opponents but we will try to beat them. In their last game against Ahli, a team with good strikers, and they couldn't create too many opportunities and Kharaitiyat could have won the game. So we have to be careful.”

“Fawzi Ayesh will come back. Aisam Jumar will miss the match.”


 
Al Kharaitiyat coach Amar Osim
“This is our third game in seven days and we are not used to this kind of a situation. It will affect the performance of the teams for sure. We play against a team that after 21 rounds is only two points ahead of us. It will be a good game. And it will be the motivation, the concentration and the discipline that will make the difference.”
 
“This will be a tough game between similar sides. Similar in the sense that both teams don't have any big stars, play in a collective manner, have the fighting spirit that’s necessaey and the motivation to do better than people expect us.”
 
“To do this job you have to be positive and energetic all the time. Otherwise you shouldn’t do this job. You always find the motivation. As a team we are looking to improve and we have already proved that in the last couple of games.”

“The team has the potential to be better than it is right now. As for improving the squad for the next season, I don't think that changing players will guarantee results. I see many squads this season who deserve more than what they have achieved so far. They have done everything right but they don't have the results to show. So we want to do better next year and we will give our maximum to achieve that but the results are not something that any team can guarantee.”
