Al Wahda lost their last game at Al Ain (placed 4th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Before that game, the 3-0 home victory against Ajman.

Al Dhafra form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Uae League for Al Dhafra with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts. Dhafra has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Uae League home defeat versus Al Ittihad Kalba with 1-2 on the scoreboard. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Al Khaleej.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Al Dhafra as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. There are big problems for the Dhafra defense as they have conceded 10 goals in 3 away games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Wahda, three draws and three wins for Al Dhafra. Over 2,5 goals: seven times; under 2,5 goals: three games.
