Sharjah

WLDWDL ⚖

Sharjah will be wanting a better result here after the 0-2 UAE Pro League defeat in their last game at the hands of Al-Wahda.

Sharjah have not been the best at stopping their opponents lately, but they have also found ways to score goals themselves. Analysis of their previous 6 games shows that Sharjah have been punished defensively in 6 of them as well as managing to get on the scoresheet in 5 of those matches.

Pre-game facts show that Sharjah:

• haven't beaten Al-Ain in games played at home for the previous 3 matches in the league.

Al-Ain

WWWWWW 💯

Al-Ain come into this clash following on from a 0-2 UAE Pro League win to beat Al-Bataeh in their last fixture.

The only player to score from Al-Ain was Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba (6').

In their last six outings, Al-Ain have helped themselves to a total of 13 goals. Al-Ain have also not failed to score on each one of those occasions. In that time, they have had 4 goals go against them. That sort of trend might not be carried forward here, however.

👥 Head to head

🗞️ Team News: Al-Ain

Out of a mainly healthy group, there is just a single fitness problem for the Al-Ain gaffer Vladimir Ivić to be concerned about. Yong-woo Park (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be in action.

🔮 Prediction

When taking everything into account, Sharjah could find themselves struggling to break down this Al-Ain team who we reckon will get a goal themselves and run out victorious.

We’re going for a good battle with a 0-1 advantage for Al-Ain at full-time.

Let’s see how it plays out.
