According to Tasnim news agency, the 30th and final week of the 22nd season of the premier football league will be held today (Thursday) with 8 simultaneous matches to determine the title of the champion and the second team relegated to the first division league. Persepolis and Sepahan, the two championship contenders, must play away from home, and whoever wins the championship must celebrate the championship away from home and away from their fans. The task of the second relegated team between Sanat Naft Abadan and Mes Kerman will also be determined today. Last week, Naft Masjid Suleiman was relegated to the first division league as the first team.
Below we will have a look at today’s 8 matches.
Steel-aluminum
Neighboring teams with the same rating will face each other in the final week, their meeting today is important to determine the seventh place in the table. Aluminum currently stands in seventh place with a better goal difference with 39 points. Although this match is not sensitive, Mansourian and Rahmati want to win the last match of the season. In this meeting, aluminum can set an important record by keeping its gate closed. Rahmati’s students have the best defensive line so far this season by receiving 13 goals along with Persepolis and they hope to keep a clean sheet against Hossein Pourhamidi’s Folad.
Naft Masjid Suleiman-Malwan
The decision to drop Masjid Suleiman oil was signed last week with a draw in Arak, and today it will play its farewell game from the Premier League at home and in the presence of its fans against Melvan. Melvan, whose participation in the next season is confirmed, does not want to lose the 11th place in the table and goes to the field without stress to leave Masjid Suleiman with full hands. With the conditions that Melvan had, the results of this team under the head coach of Maziar Zare and the management of Pejman Nouri have been defensible. Zare announced that he will not sit on the bench of this team next season and the managers of this club should look for another coach. We have to see if the sailor will work in the same way in the next season or if the expectations of the staff and management of this club will be met.
Iron smelter – Fan
One of the non-sensitivity matches will be held between the 9th and 10th ranked teams and the two teams will play more to defend their reputation. Zob Ahn maintains its ninth place with a tie, but if the fan wants to get a single digit rank, they must beat Zob Ahn in Isfahan. This match is the last match of the season for Mehdi Tartar’s students, but the fans with Saket Elhami will have to host Persepolis in the semi-finals of the FA Cup, and Saket Elhami is looking for his third championship in the FA Cup with the fans.
Esteghlal – tractor
After losing in Derby 100, Esteghlal almost lost its hope for the championship, and the week after that, it stopped at home against Sanat Naft to completely say goodbye to the championship in the 22nd league. Sapinto’s students consider the match with the tractor as a good preparatory meeting to face Nasaji in the semi-finals of the FA Cup with proper preparation. If Esteghlal gets 3 points, it will get 62 points and finish its work in the third place of the table. The Blues won the championship last season without defeat and with 68 points.
Tractor is playing to defend its reputation because the students of Paco Khams have confirmed their fourth place and the battle of two teams with two Spanish and Portuguese coaches can have its own charm and beauty.
Today’s match will be their third match of the season, Esteghlal lost 2-0 in the first match, but they compensated for their previous defeat in the elimination cup by eliminating Tractor. This match may be technically more beautiful than the last two games because it is not sensitive to any of them.
Arrow – Mes Rafsanjan
The conflict between the two teams can be called a competition between the options of the head coach of the Omid team, Mojtaba Hosseini and Mohammad Rabiei. Pikan faces Mes with 3 consecutive defeats. The result of today’s meeting of Mojtabi Hosseini’s students, who hold the title of the youngest team in the league, will not have much effect on their position in the table, and even if they experience their fourth defeat in a row, they may drop down one rank. On the other side, Mes Rafsanjan, who left the competition for the fourth place in the table to Tractor, does not want to lose the fifth place and if he wins the arrow, he can be higher than Golgohar at the end of the league.
Gol Gharsirjan – oil industry
The presence of Amir Ghalenoui in the national team caused the biggest damage to Golgohar. Sirjanis have won 3 defeats and 2 draws in the last 5 matches. After losing 4-0 against Persepolis last week, Elhawi’s students will go to the field to restore their dignity and have a look at the fifth place to secure their fifth place if they get 3 points and Mes Rafsanjan doesn’t get a result.
Golgohar’s opponent, however, has different conditions, Sanat Naft has won 2 wins and 3 draws in the last 5 matches, and hopes very much to celebrate Mes Kerman’s survival in the Premier League in Sirjan if they win and fail. In this match, Abadani team does not have their captain Taleb Rikani due to suspension.
Mes Kerman – Sepahan Isfahan
One of the most important matches of the season takes place in Kerman and two teams play with different motives; Sepahan for championship and copper for survival. In order to lift the cup, Sepahan needs no result other than victory, and of course, they must hope for a draw and defeat of Persepolis. Morais’ students can become champions in case of a draw against Mes and defeat of Persepolis because they have defeated Persepolis in head-to-head games.
Mes has 4 defeats and 1 draw in their last 5 games and if they beat Sepahan, they will definitely stay in the Premier League. The first leg of the two teams ended with a score of 2-0 in favor of Sepahan, and the Isfahani yellow-coats have a better chance in the return match on paper, unless Messi creates a surprise to keep themselves in the league and make Persepolis’ championship path smoother.
Textile – Persepolis
We can witness the most important and of course the most attractive CM meeting in Qaimshahr. Persepolis players are very hopeful to win their seventh consecutive win at Shahid Watani Stadium and lift the championship trophy. Golmohammadi’s students won the last 6 matches so that today they are the main contenders for the championship and face Nasaji in the best mental and emotional conditions. The Tehrani Reds know that they do not have the right to make the slightest mistake against Nasaji, and their negligence means the loss of a trophy. Persepolis, which is at the top of the table with 63 points, has the right to win the championship.
The opponent of Persepolis is a team that has not managed to win since the 14th week until now, and these results caused Hamid Motahari to leave this team. Nasaji lost the game in Tehran with a result of 5-1 and is looking to make up for that defeat and get 3 points after 16 weeks and end the league with a win.
According to Tasnim, the schedule for the 30th week of the Premier League is as follows:
Thursday, May 28 at 6 p.m
