The Gulf Cup is back and eight countries will compete for the ultimate prize in Gulf football and 2,000,000 riyals. Defending champions and 10-time winners, Kuwait, will want to repeat their success in the 21st edition of the tournament. Tough groups are ahead for all 8 nations and will play for about 2 weeks to see who will outlast the rest in Bahrain for the prestigious award and bragging rights, for two years.
