Xinhua, April 19, 2016 Adjust font size:

Iran's Tractor Sazi of Tabriz coach Amir Ghalenoei said that the match against Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia on Tuesday is not easy, Tasnim news agency reported on Tuesday.

AFC Champions League Group C leader Tractor Sazi has been scheduled to meet Al Hilal on Tuesday in Qatari Doha Suheim Bin Hamad Stadium.

"We want to continue our good run in the competition and remain on top of the group," said Ghalenoei, adding that "we are playing against a strong team and the match will not be easy for us, but I'm confident that our players will get a positive result."

"I hope that we could secure our place in the Round of 16 in this match day .... There are no big difference between our team and Al Hilal as we are only one point ahead of them in the group which means that the match will be hard for both sides," Ghalenoei was quoted as saying. Endit
