Al-hussein: Al-Hussein SC are set to face off against Iran's Esteghlal tomorrow evening, Tuesday, at the Amman International Stadium in a decisive second-leg encounter of the AFC Champions League 2 (ACL2) Round of 16. The Jordanian representatives enter the fixture with a slim but vital aggregate advantage, having secured a clinical 1-0 victory in the opening leg held in Dubai last week.
According to Jordan News Agency, carrying the momentum of their away win, Al-Hussein aim to capitalize on their home-turf advantage to seal their ticket to the quarter-finals. The tactical stakes are high as the Jordanian side looks to maintain defensive solidity while hunting for the goal that would put the tie out of reach.
Both squads are scheduled to conduct their final training sessions on the Amman pitch today, Monday, followed by the pre-match technical meeting and official press conferences to outline their strategies for the winner-takes-all clash.
