The final round of the group stage kicks off on Friday the 30th at 530 pm (Jerusalem Time +2GMT) with two games to determine who will advance in second place in Group 2 alongside Al-Am’ary. Merkaz Tulkarem will face Al-Am’ary knowing only that a win will see them through no matter the result of the other game. Shabab Al-Khaleel will be hoping to bag three points against Al-Dhahrieh and hope that Al-Am’ary prevent Merkaz from winning. Al-Dhahrieh is technically alive but will need to win and win big while also hoping that Al-Am’ary does them a favor.

Group 1 is starting to look a little clearer. Wadi Al-Nes and Jabal Al-Mokaber will meet to fight it out for first place, Wadi Al-Nes will only need a draw due to superior goal differential. Hilal Al-Quds will be hoping for a clear winner and a win against Hilal Areeha to leapfrog one of the sides into second place. A draw would mean the Jerusalem side will need to by at least six goals to go through. There is still faint hope for Balata, who will need to beat Asker by a healthy margin and hope Hilal Al-Quds draws or loses and that there is a winner in the Wadi Al-Nes Jabal Al-Mokaber match.
