A trophy cabinet can never have too much silverware and both Bani Yas and Al Wahda know what's at stake in this second leg of the Presidents Cup Semi-finals clash.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Bani Yas form and stats
Last season, Bani Yas's Presidents Cup journey ended in the semi-finals.When playing at home in the Uae League, Bani Yas have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 4 defeats from 8 games.
Bani are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 290 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Alhammadi).
No payout for Bani Yas in their previous match, an away game at Al Ain that ended in defeat 0-2.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Al Dhafra are coming to town in four days.
The Bani Yas fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. 9 goals have been conceded.
Al Wahda form and stats
Wahda's mission in Presidents Cup last season failed in the 8th finals.Al Wahda's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Al Wahda collect 18 points from their 9 away matches in the Uae League. 5 victories and 3 draws have created these points (and only 1 defeat).
190 minutes! That's how long the Al Wahda goalkeeper and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Al Wahda won their last game, 1-0 versus Al Khaleej played at home.
After this away game Al Wahda return home for a Uae League game against Al Wasl. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Wahda are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 16 times in 9 away games so far. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (6 so far).
