Al-Shorta faces a crucial match against Saudi giants Al-Hilal in the AFC Champions League Elite 2025-26. Al-Hilal, currently leading Group B with four consecutive wins, are in exceptional form, having won 11 matches in all competitions this season, including a recent 2-1 victory over Al Fateh. They are also top of the Saudi Pro League with 23 points from nine games. In contrast, Al-Shorta, an Iraqi team with limited success on the continental stage, has only managed one point in four AFC Champions League matches and is positioned 11th in Group B. Despite recent domestic wins, their ACL campaign has been disappointing, losing all four matches so far.
