Kuala Lumpur: The AFC Champions League Preliminary Stage ties involving Shahr Khodro FC (IR Iran) v Riffa (Bahrain) and Esteghlal FC (IRN) v Kuwait SC - both scheduled for January 21, 2020 - have been moved to neutral venues because of ongoing security concerns and the decision of several Governments to issue travel warnings to the Islamic Republic of Iran.
“To help facilitate the switch to neutral venues, which has been approved by the relevant AFC Committees, the AFC will now reschedule the games to January 25, 2020 in the United Arab Emirates.”
