PETALING JAYA: Akhyar Rashid, who was assaulted by two men in a robbery last week, will not be in the line-up - but he will still loom large when Terengganu take on Perak in their Super League opener today.

Before the kick-off at the Sultan Mizan Stadium today, the club will hold a special prayer for Akhyar, and also for Selangor’s Faisal Halim, who was the victim of an acid attack in Damansara on May 5.
