Qatar Club and Umm Salal Match Preview: 2023-2024 Expo Stars League

Qatar Club and Umm Salal are set to kick off the fourteenth week of Expo Stars League action for the 2023-2024 season. The match will take place at Qatar Club’s Suhaim Bin Hamad Stadium on Saturday, February 24, 2024, at six o’clock in the evening.

Both teams are aiming for a victory to improve their position in the standings. Al-Qatarawi currently sits in eighth place with 12 points, while Falcons are in seventh place with 15 points, setting the stage for a competitive clash.

During the break due to the 2023 Qatar Asian Cup, both teams focused on preparation and training. Umm Salal, coming off a Uride Cup championship win, engaged in a rigorous training program under French coach Patrice Carteron to maintain their readiness. The team also participated in a friendly tournament in January, where they faced tough competition and continued to sharpen their skills.

In a recent friendly match against Al Rayyan, Umm Salal secured a 3-2 victory. However, they suffered a defeat against Al Gharafa with three unanswered goals, highlighting areas for improvement.

Adding firepower to their squad, Umm Salal welcomed Portuguese striker Lucas Joao from Shanghai Port FC to bolster their attacking options. Meanwhile, Qatar Club strengthened their team by signing Ivorian striker Yohan Boly and defender Diab Haroun during the break.

As the two sides gear up for their upcoming match, both coaches will be focused on turning their recent losses around. Qatar Club fell to Al-Arafa, while Umm Salal faced a heavy defeat against Al-Sadd before the break. The upcoming fixture presents an opportunity for redemption and a chance to climb the league table.

With renewed hopes and a desire to secure victory, Qatar Club and Umm Salal are prepared to battle it out on the pitch. The outcome of this encounter will be crucial in shaping their journey in the Expo Stars League.
