Speaking ahead of AS FAR's clash against Egyptian giants Al-Ahly in the sixth round of the CAF Champions League group stage, Ait Ourkhan added: "We are aware that Al-Ahly's fans will be present in large numbers, but we are confident in the support of our own fans, whether in Morocco or during African matches, who always stand behind the team. We will strive to deliver a great performance and make everyone happy."

AS FAR is scheduled to face Al-Ahly tomorrow, Sunday, at Cairo International Stadium, with kick-off set for 4:00 PM, in the final matchday of the group stage.
