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

It's no vacation for neither Foolad nor Al Nassr as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

It's quite the trip for Al Nassr when visiting Foolad as the cities are 1000 kilometers apart.
