Sepahan vs Al-Ittihad Preview - 02/10/2023 - AFC Champions League
Al-Ittihad started their AFC Champions League campaign with a superb 3-0 win over FC AGMK Olmaliq at home. A brace from Romarinho and a lone goal from Camara were enough to hand Karim Benzema's side a winning start in ther Champions League quest. However, they will look to maintain their momentum when they face Sepahan away from home in what would be their second group stage game. But before their trip to Iran, Al-Ittihad will face Al Kholood in the King Cup of Champions on Wednesday and at the weekend, they Al Feiha away from home in the Saudi Pro League.
Sepahan started their AFC Champions League push with a 2-2 draw away from home against Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya. The hosts broke the deadlock on the 26th minute but four minutes later, Sepahan scored the equaliser. Midway through the second half, they led Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya 2-1 but around 88 minutes the host pulled level 2-2. However, Sepahan will rather want to avoid dropping points when they host a very good Saudi Arabia side, Al-Ittihad in their second group stage game. It's important to know that Sepahan won't be in action until this game because their next two fixtures against Gol Gohar and Foolad have been postponed.
