Doha, Qatar: Al Arabi coach Younis Ali said his side will aim for a historic title as the Amir Cup champions are all set to face Emirati President's Cup winners Sharjah in the Qatar-UAE Super Cup today.

The inaugural one-off blockbuster will be played at the 40,000-seat Al Thumama Stadium, with the kick-off set for 7:00 pm.

Addressing the media at a pre-match press conference held in Doha yesterday, Ali made his intentions clear.

"We will give our best against a strong competitor and we will strive to achieve the title," Ali said.

"We will perform with concentration, without gifting opportunities to them. We will also work to exploit all the opportunities we have to score. I expect a good match from both sides and we are waiting for support from the fans," the former Qatar midfielder said.
