Ambiguity in the planning of matches and Esteghlal’s protest against hosting Persepolis

According to the sports reporter of Fars news agency, Esteghlal Club has objections to the planning of Premier League matches and therefore seeks to change the time of the match against Persepolis from the fifth week (Thursday, December 23).

This club has expressed its protest to the league organization due to the schedule of Premier League games, which has made Persepolis host in most of the games in the coming weeks.

Tehran Reds will host Havadar in the twelfth week of the Premier League and then host Esteghlal in the delayed game of the fifth week. If the game against Nasaji had not been canceled, this team would have played its third consecutive home game (in the 11th week). However, after the away game against Esteghlal Khuzestan (in the 13th week), Persepolis has 2 more consecutive games against Shams Azar (the 14th week) and Nasaji (the 11th week).

But on the other hand, after visiting Zob Ahan this week (11th), Esteghlal also has 2 games against Khuzestan and Persepolis in 2 games on 12th and 5th weeks.

Therefore, the management of Esteghlal Club has sent a letter to the league organization requesting to change the time of the derby.

In addition, it is said that the Football Federation and some officials of the league organization do not know the reason for the cancellation of the match between Persepolis and Nasaji, and why this match was held as a friendly is also another question mark in the planning of the matches.

According to these conditions, Esteghlal Club is seriously pursuing this issue, and it should be seen what the results of this club’s pursuits will be in the end.
