In the context of the sixth round of the AFC Champions League, a match between Al-Ittihad and Sepahan is scheduled. The game will take place in Mesa city on Monday, December 4th, at 19:00 Central European Time.
The Saudis have significantly strengthened their team and are considered one of the main contenders for victory in the AFC Champions League. The team has secured four victories in five matches and holds the first position in the group.
However, their performance at home hasn't been as positive. Al-Ittihad holds the fourth position after playing 15 matches. They are trailing the leading Al-Hilal by a significant ten points. Recovering from such a gap will be incredibly challenging, especially considering the recent results of the leader.
Sepahan is facing difficulties at the start of the new season. While the team appears confident in the AFC Champions League and hasn’t faced any defeats (the match with Al-Ittihad didn't take place, as the Iranian team was technically awarded a loss), the situation in the Iranian championship is a bit more complicated.
Sepahan also faced consequences at home, with the federation deducting 4 points from their tally. Currently, Sepahan is in the fourth position.
