Al Sailiya coach Mirghani Al Zain spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 10 match against Al Sadd.

“The match will be difficult against the defending champions, whose high quality is reflected on their results in the competition.

“The team is entering the match with high morale after their strong performance in the previous round. All players are ready except for Mathias Norman, who is sidelined with an injury, but his return is expected after the upcoming international break,” said Mirghani.

Al Sailiya player Diogo Amaro said, “We are approaching the match with a strong fighting spirit. The group possesses great cohesion that helps us bounce back in tough matches. The team’s comeback against Al Duhail, when we overturned a two-goal deficit to draw 2-2, was evidence of the team’s strong character.

“We will fight to achieve a positive result that will improve our position in the league standings.”
