According to Ekhtaz Online, quoted by Ilna, Persepolis and Chadormello will face each other today at Pas Qavamin Stadium in Tehran to determine the third representative of Iran in the Asian Champions League (2nd level) in the three-way tournament.
The winner of this match will have to face Golgohar Sirjan in the next stage, although Golgohar has not yet made a final decision about participating in this tournament. By winning this game, Persepolis can get closer to the Asian quota, while Chadormello also has a lot of motivation to win this historical quota.
History of confrontations
The two teams have met four times so far, Persepolis has won three and drawn one, and Chadormello has yet to score a goal against the Reds. The last meeting between the two teams ended with a single goal by Amirhossein Mahmoudi in favor of Persepolis. Saeed Akhbari, the head coach of Chadormelo, had four defeats and one draw in five matches against Persepolis, while Osmar Vihera won his only match against Akhbari.
The recent form of the two teams
Persepolis has four defeats and one victory in its last five games and enters this match with three consecutive defeats. However, with three consecutive wins and two defeats in the last five games, Chadormello is in a better condition.
Extensive absences
Persepolis, in addition to its six national team players (Piyam Najaz, Hossein Kanaanizadegan, Milad Mohammadi, Ali Alipour, Oston Oronov and Igor Sergeev) who are present in the World Cup, does not have Mohammad Hossein Sadeghi, Yaqoub Baragheh and Soroush Rafiei. Chadormelo also lacks most of its foreign players (Edson Marden, Victor Mateos, Diego Torres, Reni Simistra, Mario Otazo and Mauro Caballero) and Hadi Habibinejad.
Technical points of the meeting
– Referee: Moudanifar
– Water supply interruption: It will be implemented in this game
– Yellow card: bans due to league yellow cards are not applied in this match
The status of head coaches
Osmar Vieira does not have a clear situation to continue working with Persepolis, while Saeed Akhbari has recently extended his contract with Chadormello. Persepolis started training for this match a few weeks ago, but Chadormelo will apparently enter this match with only two training sessions.
the scorers
Amirhossein Mahmoudi, Giorgi Gulsiani and Sardar Dorson have been the top scorers of the two teams’ previous matches (one goal each), but none of these three players will be on the field tomorrow.
This match will be held in a situation where Persepolis and Chadormello will face each other in the strangest and most incomplete situation possible after a long suspension of matches. The result of this game can have a direct impact on Iran’s club football and the Asian quota for the next season.
