UAE champions Al Shabab are confident ahead of tomorrow night's Asian Champions League clash with Uzbek outfit Bunyodkor.

Toninho Cerezo's side demolished their rivals Al Khaleej 6-0 in the domestic competition on the weekend and are brimming with confidence ahead of their second group match.

Al Shabab lost 2-0 to Iranian club Sepahan in their first ACL match and will be looking for vast improvement against the Rivaldo-led Bunyokdor.

"The result has been amazing, but we will still keep our feet firmly on the ground," Cerezo said after the 6-0 rout.

"Though we lost in Iran [against Sepahan] last week, our players found the confidence and self-belief that they can match the best. We can only hope they carry forward this spirit when we face Bunyodkor on Wednesday.

"Right now, the main focus is to get enough rest and then start preparing the team for the AFC Champions League match," said the Brazilian.
