Al Duhail First Football Team Head Coach Djamel Belmadi emphasized the importance of securing a win in the upcoming match against Al Arabi, scheduled for Saturday evening as part of the Doha Bank Stars League. His remarks came during the pre-match press conference.

Belmadi opened his statement by saying: “Our focus during preparations for the Al Arabi match has largely been on recovery and rehabilitation following our recent ACL fixture, in order to avoid any physical fatigue that might impact the players. An important confrontation awaits us versus Al Arabi, and our goal, of course, is to win this match.”

Belmadi concluded: “Certainly, facing Al Arabi in the league is completely different from our encounter in the Amir Cup, given the different nature of the two competitions. We hope there will be a positive impact on the players ahead of Al Arabi game following our qualification for the next round of the AFC Champions League Elite.
