I have started on a good note’ By Sports Reporter Doha t’s quite a rare instance that Al Duhail and Al Sadd go head-to-head today with both the teams not among Ithe leaders of the QNB Stars League. It’s still early days in the tournament, but the Qatari gi- ants have seldom looked at their best in recent times. After three matches in the league, Duhail have won two and lost one and are fi fth in the table, while Sadd have fared slightly better, occupying third position with seven points from three matches. A victory for both the teams in today’s match, post- poned from Week 3 due to their commitment in the AFC Cham- pions League, would at best put them in second place as Al Ahli, with four wins out of four sit pretty at the top.
