Preview - Group E: Al Wehdat (JOR) v FC Nasaf (UZB)

Dammam: FC Nasaf are one step away from achieving a long-term dream according to head coach Ruzikul Berdiev as they take on Al Wehdat in their final match of the AFC Champions League™ 2022 Group E on Wednesday with a win sending them into round of 16 for the first time in the club history.

Nasaf participated in the competition on four previous occasions, exiting at the group stage in 2012, 2015, 2016 and 2018, but after a four-year absence from the competition, they could become the fourth different side from Uzbekistan to reach the Round of 16, following on the footsteps of Pakhtakor, Bunyodkor and Lokomotiv.

Going into the final matchday, Berdiev’s men sit second in Group E with eight points to their name. A win will secure at least one of the three best runners-up tickets to the next round, and they could even finish top of the group should they beat Al Wehdat while group leaders Al Faisaly slip up against Al Sadd.
