After league round 1 it's Al Jazira - Al Wahda 3-0 in points. Who will carry the day in this second Uae League game of the season?
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Al Jazira form and stats
In the previous season, Al Jazira's league statistics were 14 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses, results that produced 5th position in the Uae League. In these 26 matches they scored {50 goals} and conceded 39. Performing at their own stadium in the previous season Al Jazira generated 8-2-3 (win-draw-lost) with {26 goals} and 16 conceded.
Happy days for Jazira in their previous game, a fixture away at Al Nasr (placed 13th) that ended with a 3-1 victory.
Ahead of that game, a home defeat in the Arabian Gulf Cup against Al Sharjah. This is expected to be a close game, with Al Jazira perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Al Jazira as a small favourite), we find 10 games. Al Jazira has won 2 of these, drawn 3 and lost 5.

Wahda have much to rectify after their shock loss (1-2) to Al Bataeh in their previous game, played at their own home ground.
