Awaiting them in the quarter-finals will be the impressive Al Ahli Saudi FC but Buriram will not be fazed, having come through various tests enroute to booking their quarter-final slot.

Despite the presence of some of Asia's biggest teams, Buriram advanced to the Round of 16 with a sixth placed finish.

Their three victories in the League Stage included wins against Korea Republic's Ulsan HD and Pohang Steelers and Buriram will draw confidence from having beaten two former Asian champions.

They were equally impressive in the Round of 16 encounter against Johor Darul Ta'zim 1-0 on aggregate.

Suphanat Muenta scored the winning goal against the Malaysian side and the Thai international will be counted on to deliver in the Finals, starting with the quarter-final showdown with Al Ahli Saudi.
