Al Wahda form and stats
2 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Al Wahda have to build on here at Al-Nahyan Stadium in the Uae League. Two home wins in a row for Wahda bring valid hopes of a third.
Al Wahda lost their last game at Al Ittihad Kalba (placed 7th) after a 1-2 scoreline. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Pedro for missing a penalty kick versus Al Ittihad Kalba in the 68th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.
Before that, Wahda had a Presidents Cup home game versus Ajman which ended with a victory 1-0.The match schedule is unforgiving for Wahda as they have a new game in only four days, a Arabian Gulf Cup match thankfully also at home. Al Nasr are visiting.
Wahda can score goals in their home matches. After 4 league matches they have found the net 8 times. Defensively Al Wahda have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (2 in 4 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Al Jazira form and stats

Jazira are travelling after their nice 4-0 home win in the Uae League against Khorfakkan Club (placed 9th). As mentioned above, Al Jazira was the only team on the pitch versus Khorfakkan Club in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Al Urooba in the Presidents Cup.The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Al Ittihad Kalba in just three days.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Jazira as they have only managed to score 3 times from 4 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Al Jazira have conceded 6 goals in their away games.
