Al Ain form and stats

Perfect Uae League season at home so far for Al Ain 2 wins from 2 appearances.

A good away victory last time out for Ain, who won 3-2 against Al Sharjah. Al Ain made it very difficult for themselves, when Autonne got a red card in the 37th minute. The match was still a draw at this point. But even with this card, Al Ain won the match 3-2!

Before that, Ain had a Uae League home game versus Ajman which ended with a victory 6-0.

Al Ain are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium with a victory.
