Lekhwiya will play bottom side Al Meisameer at the Lekhwiya stadium today. This match is the last match of the QSL season for both teams.   
Lekhwiya have confirmed a fourth place finish this season.  Meaning the Red Knights will compete in the Qatar Cup for another season.   
Djamel Belmadi, the head coach of Lekhwiya hopes to get back to winning ways in the last game, “In terms of target there is no target for us or them as Mesaimeer have been relegated. In our last game we didn’t plan to lose against Al Ahli. Five goals are a lot to concede and we need to change some things in the team before our Champions League game in Uzbekistan.”   
“In a meeting with our players we said we lack consistency. We had some good periods as we had 9 wins in a row. Consistency has been a big issue for us as our squad was not prepared for playing in many different competitions,” added the Algerian tactician.   
Motivation is key in the last stages of the season as minds and legs get tired. Belmadi believes that the players must work until the end of the season till the job is done. “It’s difficult to find motivation in the end of the season but I believe you have to do your job till the end. If the players want motivation for this last match they need to think about the last match against Al Ahli, in which we conceded 5 goals and to erase the memory of that,” added the forty-year-old.
Mesaimeer have already been relegated from the QSL and will ply their trade in the Qatar Gas league next season. With only six points from twenty-five games, the Torches will hope to end the season with three points.   
Rodion Gacanin, the head coach of Al Mesaimeer, is concerned about getting yellow cards in the next match as many players from his side might face suspension, “For us all the matches are difficult and we try to play our best. Many players from our team have yellow cards and I hope no player gets suspended,” said the Croatian at the press conference on Wednesday.   
Despite a disappointing season Gacanin insists that he is proud of his players, “We have shown good character over the season. I will not talk about quality of play just the character of the team has been great. Of course we lost many matches but I am proud of coaching this team and as for next season we will have a meeting with the club and we will decide if I stay in the team,” added the fifty-two-year-old.
