Al -Hilal leads the West League ranking with 19 points from 7 games, with a goal difference against Al -Ahly, compared to 16 points for victory, 12 points for the dam, 11 points for Al -Wasl, 8 points for Al Rayyan, 7 points for Gharafa, 6 points for both Independence and Percipolis, 4 points for Bakhtakor, and 3 Police points, two points for the eye.
Al -Ahly Saudi Arabia is looking to adhere to the competition for the lead when he meets with its Qatari guest, Al -Gharafa, today, Monday – at the “King Abdullah Sports City” stadium in Jeddah, in the last eighth round of the league stage competitions.
Al -Ahly included qualifying for the exclusionary roles, as he searches in this match for achieving a new victory, in the hope of kidnapping the lead, after the team succeeded in achieving 6 wins in its seven matches that he played so far, for a tie once.
But Al -Gharafa enters this match with a greater motivation, as it needs to win in order to resolve the qualification card to the round of 16 without waiting for the results of other matches.
So far, Al -Gharafa has achieved two victory in its previous matches, against a tie once and a loss of 4 games, as he scored 8 goals, for 14 goals in his goal.

The Saudi victory is also looking to achieve a new victory when it meets its Iranian host Persepolis tomorrow, Monday, at the “Azadi” stadium in Tehran.
Al -Nasr enters the match with high morale, after ensuring qualification for the exclusionary roles, but he hopes to achieve a new victory in order to strengthen its position in the overall standings.
Al -Nasr achieved 5 wins in its seven matches that he played so far, for a tie once and one match loss.
As for Persepolis, he adheres to the opportunity to qualify for the round of 16, where he needs to win, while waiting for the results of the rest of the matches to be in his favor. Persepolis achieved a single victory so far, for a 3 -time draw, and the loss of 3 games.

The Iraqi police will meet with its Emirati guest Al -Ain at the “Al -Zawraa” stadium in Baghdad.
This match combines the Iraqi police team, which adheres to a very weak hope in the competition to qualify for the exclusionary roles, while Al -Ain came out of the next season’s champion of the tournament, empty -handed, and therefore each of them will try to work to achieve their first victory in the competition.
The police lost 4 games, for a 3 -time draw. As for Al Ain, he lost 5 games, for a tie twice.
Bakhtakor, the Uzbek, adheres to the opportunity to qualify for the exclusionary roles, when its guest meets the Qatari Dam at the “neighbor” stadium in Tashkent.
Al -Sadd will enter this match with high confidence after it succeeded in securing the qualification card to the exclusionary roles, and therefore it will try against Bakhtakor to win in order to strengthen its position in the final ranking.
The team has succeeded so far in winning 3 of its seven matches, compared to a tie 3 times and losing one match, as he scored 9 goals for the entry of 7 goals in his goal.
As for Bakhtakor, he still has a little opportunity to qualify for the round of 16, but he needs to win, in addition to waiting for the results of the rest of the matches.
Bakhtakor has not yet achieved any victory in his previous matches, as it tied 4 times, in exchange for losing 3 games, and scored only two goals for entering 5 goals in his goal.
Tuesday matches
The Saudi Al -Hilal team will be a guest of the Emirati Al -Wasl team, tomorrow, Tuesday, in Dubai, which is the participation in which the Emirati team included the qualification card to the round of 16 for the first time in its continental career.
Al -Wasl has great motives, most notably the necessity of achieving a positive result to stay in one of the fourth or fifth places, hoping to stay away from facing the teams of the foreground in the next round.
Al -Wasl has 11 points in the fifth ranking behind the fourth -ranked dam with 12 points, and tomorrow’s match is the first between Al Wasl and Al Hilal in the AFC Champions League.
Al -Wasl did not win any victory over the Saudi teams in Asia except victory in the first confrontation they gathered in the 2019 edition, and ended with the victory of the Emirati team with a clean goal, but lost in the last 3 consecutive games against Saudi teams.
In another confrontation at the same time, the Qatari Rayyan plays against its guest, Tehran’s independence, in a decisive confrontation at the Ahmed bin Ali stadium.
Al -Rayyan is ranked sixth with 8 points, and it is sufficient for the tie point to ensure his qualification from the West Group.
The Qatari team enters the meeting, by winning in the last round 2-1 against Al Ain Al-Emirati, the title of the title of last year’s edition, who bid farewell to the competition early.
As for Iranian independence, it is in the eighth place in the table with 6 points, and the victory needs to ensure its qualification directly without other considerations, and the tie point may also be sufficient if his fellow Persepolis, the Iranian victory, will be sufficient for the Saudi victory, and Bakhtakor Uzbeki in front of the Qatari dam, in two confrontations today.
It is scheduled that the round of the round of 16 will be held in the elimination system back and forth next March, where the team, the first place, will meet with the eighth, the second with the seventh, the third with the sixth, and the fourth with the fifth, and the winner qualifies for the quarter -finals.
