The country is in the midst of a heatwave and temperatures are set to reach between about 27C to 30C over the weekend.
Water breaks will take place at the discretion of the referee but will most likely take place mid-way through both halves - approximately in the 22nd and 67th minute of the game. Both water breaks will be a maximum of one minute long.
