AI Sadd, who finished in third place in the Qatar top tier league, will compete in this international tournament in an effort to win the championship and get a head start on the upcoming season. AI Sadd enter this competition having gone winless in their previous three club friendlies. They hope to halt that streak with a victory here. They were defeated by Sabah Baku of Azerbaijan by a score of 3-1 and then by Al Shabab U21 of Yemen by a score of 3-1 before being held to a draw by Moroccan Raja Casablanca. The Qatari were off to a strong start in their most recent match, taking a 2-0 lead into the break; however, they were unable to maintain their lead and ended up conceding two goals in the second half, which resulted in the game ending in a 2-2 draw. A win in this match will be extremely important for them as they begin their campaign to finish in the top two spots in group B.
Wydad - hoping to start on a bright note
Wydad finished second behind FAR Rabat in the Moroccan Botola Pro league, missing out on first place by a single point. In spite of this, they continue to be a formidable opponent in a competition such as this one. In their last six matches, this team has only one defeat to their name. They now hold a record of 3 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss from their encounters. They were unable to recover from an own goal scored by Zola in the 18th minute of their most recent meeting against Raja in the semifinals of a cup contest, and the game finished 1-0 in favour of the Casablanca-based team. This side is going to give it their all in order to bring about a successful outcome so that they may secure a place in the elimination rounds.
Expert Betting Tips
The Moroccan team appears to be in excellent shape to start off this competition, and I anticipate that they will prevail over the Qatari in a match that will be quite competitive.
