The league table is allowed to rest as Ajman and Al Nasr battle for Arabian Gulf Cup honors in this first 1st Round leg of two fixtures.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Uae League. That game, against Bani Yas, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Al Nasr.
Ajman form and stats
Last season their Arabian Gulf Cup adventure ended in the 1st round against Al Dhafra.When playing at home in the Uae League, Ajman have managed 0 wins, 0 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 1 games.
The home team returns to Shaikh Rashid bin Saeed Stadium after drawing with Emirates on their last time out; the game ended 4-4. A disappointing finish for Ajman in their match versus Emirates as their 3-1 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 4-4 full time score.
Ahead of that match, Ajman lost 0-3 at home to Shabab Al Ahli Dubai.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Ajman have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 7 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 1 and lost 2.
Ajman has scored {0 goals} so far and conceded {3 goals} from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
Al Nasr form and stats
They also participated in Arabian Gulf Cup last season. This ended in the semi-finals, when Al Ain drew the shortest straw.The visitors are W0-D0-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Uae League.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Nasr, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-4 versus Bani Yas. As you can tell from the result, the match against Bani Yas was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
A 1-3 loss hosting Al Jazira before that.We have checked recent matches where Al Nasr have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 5 games were 1 victory, 1 draw and 3 defeats.
Al Nasr have the goal stats of 2-4 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
Head 2 Head
Stats for the prior ten meetings involving these two teams are: six wins for Ajman, zero draws and four wins for Al Nasr. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
