DOHA: Qatar's Al Rayyan landed in Abu Dhabi on Monday and went straight into training ahead of this week's AFC Champions League match against UAE side Al Jazira. The match takes place at Al Jazira's home turf on Tuesday at Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium. Qatar Stars League (QSL) side Al Rayyan will be hoping for good form they showed against Al Kharaitiyat and Al Ahli in their last two matches. Rashid Al Khalifa is heading the Al Rayyan contingent on their Abu Dhabi trip. “We came to Abu Dhabi in order to have a good victory in our first match in the competition which will be very hard,” said Al Rayyan assistant coach Jesus Calderon. “We prepared well for the match and I hope that the recent results that we had in the local league will help us to have a good approach to the match," he added.
