Recap
Due to inability to host the matches on Lebanese soil, this match will be played at Khalifa International Stadium in Bahrain, which is a home stadium of Al Riffa. Nejmeh will have additional problems at the goalkeeper position, because first goalkeeper Ali Al-Sabaa and second goalkeeper Mohamed Zahr are out due to injury. This is a big chance for Al Riffa to take the first win in Group C in front of their supporters.
