Qatar SC coach Marquez Lopez spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 10 match against Al Arabi.

“All league matches are difficult and they are all decided by fine margins. It is important to deliver our best performance and maintain peak concentration throughout the game.

“Facing Al Arabi will not be easy. Al Arabi’s results have improved since they changed their coach. The team has shown clear improvement and is performing well.

“It is also important for us to put on the necessary form to achieve a positive result against Al Arabi,” said Lopez.

Qatar SC forward Joao Pedro said, “Al Arabi are a strong team despite their current position in the standings and they have outstanding players, which reflects the strength of the match we will be playing against them.

“This match is very important for us and is key to climbing higher in the standings, so we must give our all to achieve victory.”
