Actually their "A" squad is banned for life for match fixing, their "B" squad is on strike, so hello "C" squad in an empty stadium.
A win, regardless of the situation would be huge for positioning in the table as well as the psyche of the national program that has until March to play it's next meaningful game. Go in to the break on a high note!
