The league, which was due to resume today after a day's break, will now start tomorrow with the much-awaited Abahani-Brothers match.

The extra day will give both title contenders an opportunity to see their key injured players, Brothers defender Masud Rana and Abahani goalkeeper Nizam, regain full fitness.

The gap will also help Abahani, now third in the table with 14 points -- two points adrift of holders Brothers -- settle their minds on completing the quota of foreign players by recruiting their third import.

Looking for a defender to strengthen their suspect backline, Abahani have to choose between Ghana's Osie Neil, who has already trained with the Sky Blues, and Cameroonian Naga, expected to arrive in the city today.
