THE PREDICTION
Al Ahli are on a terrible run of form ahead of this AFC Champions League opener with Esteghal. They have lost their last six matches while they are without a win in eight. Esteghlal on the other hand are unbeaten in their last five and they will believe they can cause an upset owing to Al Ahli’s recent issues. Esteghlal have conceded just one goal in their last four matches and they can rely on their defensive efforts to claim at least a point from this clash.
