The preliminary round was not a walk in the park for the Gaurs but the defending Super Cup champions displayed their character to snatch victory from the dominant Al Seeb. FC Goa were the second best side in the match against the Omani side, but the will to not put the weapons down guided them to a historic win.

The former ISL champions have been placed in a complicated group that has the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr, making the job tougher for them. Not just Al Nassr but Iraq’s Al Zawraa and Istiklol from Tajikistan are equally tough opponents.

For Manolo Marquez, three points against Al Zawraa will be crucial if he wants to keep his team in contention for the knockout spots. The Gaurs have an edge going into the first fixture as they will play at their home, allowing them to settle down and soak up the pressure of the occasion quickly.
