PETALING JAYA: After giving Malaysia a bloody nose last week, Oman want to land another blow on the hosts in a World Cup football qualifier tomorrow.

The Middle East team, who defeated Malaysia 2-0 in the first leg in Muscat, will meet Kim Pan Gon's men again at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil.

At a pre-match press conference today, Oman's Czech coach, Jaroslav Silhavy, said his team aim to beat Malaysia for the second time in two weeks.

Silhavy said world No. 80 Oman have a good idea of how to play world No. 132 Malaysia in the return leg after the 2-0 win in the first match.

"We believe Malaysia is a very organised team. We respect them and know they will get home support but we will push for a win.

"We aren't worried too much because we believe we'll win the game."

Meanwhile, Oman defender Ali Sulaiman Al-Busaidi, who provided two assists in the 2-0 win over Malaysia, said: "We're here to win. If we do so, we'll continue to top the group.

"We respect Malaysia and we know they have good players. But our team are filled with good players, too."
