Premiere today in AFC Cup teams and Lebanese teams begin their obligations with a significant disadvantage, as the disruption of the championship due to prolonged socio-political instability, put the country's football world inactive.
Nevertheless, and unlike all the other teams that released their foreigners, Ansar is the only one who actively kept the contracts of all the players, thus maintaining the (strong) roster that he had built last year. With Hassan Matuk, Suni Saad, Leo Kamara, Malik Tal, he was the undisputed favorite for this year's title in Lebanon. The team has been camping for ten days in the city of Kuwait with the preparation being intensive in order to remove, as much as possible, the consequences of the inactivity.
Kuwait SK has a strong and advantageous home base, but I have the impression that the odds are badly inflicted on the guests, even without the presence of injured Abbas Atoui "Onika".
