“Rayan is a big team but we want to maintain our form and we will play for the full points of the game,” manager Jose Paolo was quoted saying on the club’s official website.

“Gomaa is a 100% fit for the game and he will have a starting role tomorrow,” added the Brazilian tactician.

The 31-year old defender suffered from a minor muscle strain last Sunday when playing against Al-Arabi.

Al-Sailiya are fourth of the Qatari standings with 13 points.
