Doha: Al Gharafa and Al Wasl Club are poised for an intense battle at Al Khor’s Al Bayt Stadium, with both sides eager for a victory as they aim for the AFC Champions League Elite knockout stage.
Both teams enter the game having secured three points each from their first two matches.
The Qatari side currently holds sixth place in the West Zone standings, thanks to a goal difference advantage over UAE’s Al Wasl Club, who sit in seventh place.
After a 3-0 drubbing by Iran’s Esteghlal in their opening match, Al Gharafa bounced back in spectacular fashion by defeating continental champions Al Ain of the UAE 4-2 in their second match, with Joselu netting a brace.
