Al Duhail started preparations for their Qatar Cup final against Al Sadd, to be played on Friday, 27th April. The match will kick off at 19:00 at the Al Sadd Stadium.

Al Duhail reached the final by defeating Al Gharafa 6-1 and target their second title of the season to add to their QNB Stars League triumph.

Algerian coach Djamel Belmadi put his wards through their paces. The only absentee was Tunisian attacking midfielder Youssef Msakni, who sustained a knee injury during their last league match against Al Sailiya and is ruled out for the rest of the season.

Al Duhail are doing well in the AFC Champions League as well. They had become the first team to reach the Round of 16 and also had the distinction of being the only side with an all-win record in the group stage.
