Oceans, having reached the semi-finals six times in eight AFC Futsal Club Championship appearances, will rely on experience against a Thai Son Nam side who ended the Japanese club's campaign in the 2018 quarter-finals.

Mes Sungun were defeated 3-2 by Nagoya Oceans in their group stage meeting - the first loss the Islamic Republic of Iran side have suffered over two editions of the AFC Futsal Club Championship - and they are desperate to retain the title to make up for that loss.

AGMK have another reason in wanting to extend their campaign - this is the first time the Uzbekistan club have advanced to the knockout stage in four appearances and they want their dream run to continue.

Thai Son Nam will face three-time champions Nagoya Oceans, who defeated Vamos FC 3-1 in their quarter-final , in Thursday's semi-finals.

Nagoya Oceans will face Thai Son Nam in the semi-finals on Thursday and it will be a grudge match with the Vietnamese club having eliminated the Japanese side in the quarter-finals last year.

AGMK's reward is a semi-final against defending champions Mes Sungun Varzeqan, with the Islamic Republic of Iran side having defeated Lebanon's Bank of Beirut 3-2 in their quarter-final earlier on Wednesday.
