The first match is scheduled for 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday afternoon, and another factor to take into account is that the venue where the BJKC is played is not the central pavilion of Martín Carpena, but rather an annex facility that has been erected in recent days on one of the parking lots in the Malaga complex.
