Al Hussein Irbid aim to win and collect three points to strengthen their position in the group and take top spot from Iraqi Police, in a match between the two teams currently occupying first and second place.

Al Hussein Irbid are second with 5 points, two points behind Iraqi Police, who lead with 7. Indian club East Bengal are third with two points, and Oman's Sohar are fourth with one point.

The two teams drew 1-1 in the third round in Baghdad. Al Hussein took the lead with a goal from Abdullah Nseib, before Iraqi Police equalized from a penalty in the 95th minute.

A win would lift Al Hussein Irbid to 8 points and give them sole ownership of the top spot, while a draw would keep the two-point gap between the teams, making the result significant for the group standings and qualification calculations for the second round.

Al Hussein Irbid conclude their preparations for the match on Monday, ahead of the game at home in front of their fans.
