    The Zurich Chess Club announces a six-game chess match between
    Vladimir Kramnik (Russia) and Levon Aronian (Armenia) from 21 to 28
    April 2012. The numbers 2 and 3 of the World ranking will meet in
    the time-honored Hotel Savoy Baur en Ville at Paradeplatz, the venue
    of many a famous chess event in the past, the World Chess Federation
    (FIDE) reports.

    Kramnik and Aronian are the winners of the two most prestigious
    tournaments of the last months. While the 36-year-old Kramnik has
    gained a convincing victory at the London Chess Classic in December,
    the 29-year-old Aronian has just won the famous tournament in Wijk
    aan Zee with an outstanding score.

    Both players belong to the hottest candidates in the World championship
    qualifier later this year. The Zurich Chess Challenge will be the
    first encounter in the history of chess between two players with a
    rating above the magical 2800 limit and it is the first ever friendly
    match at the top level.
