It's the first Champions League match to be on Iraqi territory after 13 for years! Although the match is in Karbala (60 km from the still unsaid Baghdad), the stadium is expected to be packed.
In the first match of the group, Zoura with excellent goalkeeper Jalal Hassan managed to draw a draw (0-0) in Iran by Hob Ahan and today he will try to throw from the top of Al-Wassel which, with enough luck, has defeated at its headquarters (1-0) the Nasser group favorite.
The important absences of Ronaldo Mendes and Cayo Caneo for the emirs, along with the "hot" atmosphere they will meet in Karbala, I think they will tighten the match to the left.
