International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both Al Sailiya and Padideh Khorasan are looking forward to this AFC Champions League fight to decide who advances from the Play-offs.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a AFC Champions League game only three days ago.
Padideh Khorasan have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Al Sailiya form and stats
When playing at home in the Premier League, Al Sailiya have managed 2 wins, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 6 games. The Al Sailiya manager S. Trabelsi might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
The Al Sailiya fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League game also here at Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against Al Ahli. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Al Khor (1-2).
Al Sailiya are traveling soon after this match as the Premier League match at Al Sadd awaits in four days.
Al Sailiya are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 6 games. Al Sailiya have conceded 8 in these home matches.
Padideh Khorasan form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Al Riffa in order to reach Play-offs of AFC Champions League.3-4-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Padideh Khorasan in their Persian Gulf Pro League matches away.
Padideh Khorasan won their last game, 2-1 versus Al Riffa played at home. Ahead of that match was the Persian Gulf Pro League away draw versus Shahin Bushehr that ended 0-0.
A quick return to home after this game, as Padideh Khorasan are hosting Machine Sazi in the Persian Gulf Pro League only four days away.
The attacking power of Padideh Khorasan when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 9 league matches away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (5 so far).
