Kuwait seeks to officially clinch the handball league title when it faces Al-Arabi in the 20th and final round of last season’s league championship. The round features two other matches: Kazma versus Burqan at 6:00 p.m., and Salhiya versus Al-Nasr at 4:30 p.m. All three matches will be held at the Sheikh Saeed Al-Abdullah Sports Complex indoor arena.
Kuwait tops the standings with 23 points, leading alone and closing in on securing their 14th consecutive title. Burqan has already secured second place with 19 points, followed by Al-Arabi in third with 16 points, Kazma in fourth with 14 points, Salhiya in fifth with 6 points, while Al-Nasr sits at the bottom with just 2 points.
The Green team, which failed to secure second place after losing to Burqan 28-29 in the previous round, aims to prove its competitiveness by defeating the reigning champions, Kuwait, in today’s clash. Meanwhile, the White team wants to officially clinch the championship by earning the two victory points available today.
In the second match, Burqan looks to strengthen its hold on second place by overcoming a struggling Kazma. In the third encounter, Salhiya appears well-positioned to secure a win against last-placed Al-Nasr.
