Qatar's Al Gharafa reversed their opening day defeat against Islamic Republic of Iran's Esteghlal FC with a sensational 4-2 defeat of AFC Champions League™ 2023/24 winners Al Ain FC of the UAE.

Forward Joselu starred with a brace in the win against Al Ain and Al Gharafa will be counting on home ground advantage for victory against Al Wasl, with the two sides meeting for the first time on the continental stage.

UAE champions Al Wasl opened their campaign with an impressive 1-0 away defeat of Uzbekistan's Pakhtakor but were undone at home by a 2-0 loss against Saudi Arabia's Al Ahli Saudi FC.

Their only previous meeting with a Qatari club in the AFC Champions League were two defeats to Al Sadd SC and they will be seeking to win a second successive game on the continental stage in a single season for the first time.

Venue: Al Bayt Stadium, Al Khor
