AFC Champions League Elite
Both sides are in desperate need of points after lukewarm starts to their respective campaigns.
Last week's 2-1 defeat to pacesetters Al Ain FC meant Islamic Republic of Iran's Tractor only have a point to their name after three matches.
They will, however, draw strength from their performance against Al Ain, with the UAE side having had to work hard to maintain their perfect start to the season.

Neftchi have been on a downward spiral after kicking off their campaign with a 1-0 win against Iraq's Air Force.
Last week's 2-1 loss to Al Ittihad Club followed a 3-1 defeat to Al Nassr Club and Neftchi must rediscover their winning touch if they are to continue harbouring hopes of seeing action in the next round.
