Emirates form and stats
The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 5 wins, 2 draws and only 1 loss in the Division 1. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Emirates, as they have won on their previous two travels.
It's the second away game in a row for Emirates, but there's smiles all around after the 6-0 victory versus Fursan Hispania (placed 17th) last time out. As mentioned above, Emirates was the only team on the pitch versus Fursan Hispania in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task.
