Iran's Tractor Sazi of Tabriz soccer team is determined to secure another win against Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal in Group C of the AFC Champions League, Tasnim news agency quoted the team's head coach as saying on Tuesday.

Tractor Sazi head coach Amir Ghalenoei said that despite having already qualified for the Round of 16, his team is looking to secure another win, even as he looks to make some alterations to his line-up.

"The match is very important for us because it is against one of the best teams in Saudi Arabia and we respect them because they are a good side," he said.

After five rounds of the games, Tractor Sazi is leading Group C with 12 points and Al Hilal has the second place with eight points.
