Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Al Wasl & Masafi face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Presidents Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
Al Wasl and Masafi should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Al Wasl form and stats
Wasl participated in Presidents Cup the last season, where they reached the semi-finals and lost against Al Sharjah.The story so far in the Uae League for Al Wasl at their home stadium (Zabeel Stadium) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 0 defeats.
The Al Wasl followers got no joy from their last match, a Arabian Gulf Cup duel also played here at Zabeel Stadium: A 0-4 defeat against Al Khaleej.
Before that match, a Uae League win away at Bani Yas.The Al Wasl manager Torroja has got the team scoring with 11 from 5 home games in the league. Al Wasl have conceded 6 in these home matches.
Masafi form and stats
Masafi was sent out of Presidents Cup in the group stage last season.The visitors are W2-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Division 1.
There might be some fixture complaints from Masafi as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous game, 0-3 against Emirates.
A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Hatta.The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played 18 away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with 6 wins, 2 draws and 10 defeats. 7 games were lost by at least two goals margin.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Masafi as they have only managed to score 5 times from 6 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Masafi have conceded 9 goals in their away games.
