They then beat Iran’s Sepahan 3-0 in Doha on 18th February before the tournament was halted due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Sepahan stand third with three points. Al Ain have yet to open their account.

All Group D matches are being played at the Al Sadd Stadium. Khalifa International Stadium (Group A), Al Janoub Stadium (Group B) and Education City Stadium (Group C) are the other venues.

Al Sadd geared up for the AFC Champions League games under Spanish coach Xavi Hernandez. They are currently second in the QNB Stars League standings with an all-win record and six points. Their Week 3 match against holders Al Duhail was postponed in view of their AFC Champions League commitments.
