KUWAIT CITY, March 28: The Zain Premier League’s Six League (Championship Group) is set to recommence this evening with a pivotal match in the twentieth round, featuring Al-Qadisiya against Al-Fahaheel at Abdullah Al-Khalifa Stadium at 9:30 pm. Saturday’s extravaganza will witness a showdown between Al-Arabi and Salmiya at Thamer Stadium, while Kuwait and Al-Nasr clash at Ali Sabah Al-Salem Stadium, both matches kicking off at 9:30 pm.
The league action was halted since March 13 due to the national team’s engagement in the joint qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup and the 2027 Asian Cup against Qatar. Currently, Al-Arabi leads the standings with 45 points, trailing Kuwait by just one point. Al-Qadisiya sits third with 42 points, followed closely by Al-Nasr with 24 points, tied with Al-Fahaheel and Al-Salmiya.
In tonight’s encounter, Al-Qadisiya aims to temporarily claim the top spot, hoping for slips from their rivals tomorrow. However, Al-Fahaheel, under the guidance of coach Mohammed Al-Mishaan, anticipates a challenging task against a determined opponent eager to leave a mark in the league after missing out on the title contention.
This clash marks the fifth meeting between the two sides this season, with Al-Qadisiya securing victory in four previous encounters, albeit facing significant challenges. Meanwhile, Al-Fahaheel, led by Syrian coach Firas Al-Khatib, seeks to build on their recent draw against Kuwait and make a statement against their formidable opponents.
Meanwhile, Al-Arabi aims to maintain its lead atop the table as it takes on Al-Salmiya, while Kuwait Club faces Al-Nasr in a crucial battle to secure vital points in the competition. Both matches promise intense action and strategic maneuvers as teams vie for supremacy in the league standings.
