Al Ahli – Al Gharafa – AFC Champions League
Al Ahli is in second place in Saudi Arabia and is fighting Al Hilal to win the championship. Just 3 steps before the final, Al Ahli is at a point behind Al Hilal. The team is going through a very good time because it has not been defeated by 10 official matches in a row. The Champions League is on the first position, with 7 points gathered after 3 matches and with a victory in this match, Sergiy Rebrov’s team has great chances to qualify. Coach Rebrov used to use a 4-2-3-1 system, with Omar Al-Soma tipped, and on the side strips with Leonardo and Fetfatzidis.
Al-Gharafa (Qat) Al Gharafa is fourth in Qatar with 2 rounds before the end of the championship. The team no longer has the chance to win an international cup spot, so they are trying to win the AFC Champions League to participate in the next year’s competition. Even if it is very difficult to do so, Wesley Sneijder’s transfer to Bulent Uygun team is a big plus. The Dutch player manages to change the game and make a difference match match, so Al Ahli is not very much favorite when there is such a good player in the opposing camp. Al Gharafa has 39 goals scored after 20 matches in the Qatar Championship, with an average of 1.9 goals scored per match. Also in AFC Champions League have 4 points after 2 matches, and a victory in this match would lead him to a qualifying place.
Al Ahli – Al Gharafa Prediction
In the tour I had a very open match, with many occasions on both gates and I think the same thing will happen again. The hosts managed to score at least 2 goals in the last 7 matches on their own field, and this shows us that they are a strong “walnut” at home. Gharafa also managed to score at least 2 goals in the last 6 away games, so I think that besides some valuable players in the field, these statistics help us a lot in deciding on the final prognosis.
