International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both Al Ahli and Al Shorta are looking forward to this AFC Champions League fight to decide who advances from the Group Stage.

The hosts Al Ahli saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Pro League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Al Nassr.

It's quite the trip for Al Shorta when visiting Al Ahli as the cities are 1700 kilometers apart.

A disappointing finish for Al Ahli in their match versus Al Nassr as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score.
