This could be an interesting match as Al Ain have their presumed home advantage while Al Wahda are ahead 2 points in the Uae League table.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Al Ain form and stats
Al Ain have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the Uae League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.
It's back home for Al Ain, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Al Wasl away with the result 2-1. Mohammed Abdulrahman and K. Laba found the net in that victory. 0-0 away at Al Khaleej before that.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of P. dos Santos Martins Silva when K. Laba scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Ain as they are travelling to their away game against Bani Yas in the Uae League. That match is four days after this one.
Ain can score goals in their home matches. After 3 league matches they have found the net 7 times. 3 goals have been conceded.
Al Wahda form and stats
Things could have gone better for Al Wahda in their Uae League away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
Wahda had fun at their own home (Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium) last time out, beating Ajman 3-0. Mohammed Al Menhali, Yahya Alghassani and Gianluca Muniz scored. Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Al Wasl's place.
After this away game Wahda return home for a Uae League game against Al Dhafra. That game is only four sleeps after this.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Al Wahda has managed 3 goals and let in 3 from 2 matches.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Al Ain six wins, two draws and Al Wahda two victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
