After the May 25th practice session,  Andranik Teymourian said, "The match against Qatar will be hard for both teams. The winner of this match will guarantee themselves at least the third stop in the table, and a playoff position."

The Al Kharaitiyat SC player added, "Qatar's national team has completely changed. Their coach has changed and many of the foreign footballers who played for this team have left. From their former national team there is only a goalkeeper and a striker left. Unlike previous years, most of their players are Qataris and they play really well at home."

Ando continued, "Even though we need a victory, we can't afford to take risks and play irrational. This game is so crucial that both teams will play it safe and the match could be won by a single opportunity."

The former Esteghlal player said, "In Qatar I have a personal trainer and my injury is healing well. I will most likely start against Qatar."

Teymourian concluded, "In our match with Qatar anything can happen. I hope it ends in our favour."
