Baniyas vs Al-Ain Live Stream, Predictions (Apr 22)

📏 Form Guide

Baniyas

DWLLWL

Baniyas will be hoping to return to winning ways here following a 2-4 UAE Pro League defeat in their last game at the hands of Dibba Al Hisn.

The only name on the scoresheet from Baniyas was Youssouf Niakaté (3', 52'). Pierre Kunde (58', 68') and Alioune Ndour (90') scored for Dibba Al Hisn.

It’s been seldom in recent games that Baniyas have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The facts show that Baniyas have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 12 goals during that time. That kind of pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward here, though.

Al-Ain

LLLLDW

Al-Ain will come into the meeting following a 3-0 UAE Pro League win with the defeat of Al-Urooba in their previous outing.

For Al-Ain, the scorers were Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba (48'), Matías Palacios (53') and Sékou Gassama (64').

Throughout their 6 most recent matches, Vladimir Ivić's Al-Ain have managed to stick the ball in the net a total of 6 times - giving them a goals per game average of 1.

👥 Head to head

An examination of their past head to head meetings stretching back to 18/02/2022 tells us that these fixtures have not been happy ones for Baniyas. They’ve not managed to register any wins whatsoever while Al-Ain have dominated them, finishing as winners in 67% of those match-ups.

A total of 20 goals were scored between them during those clashes, with 6 of them for The Sky Blues and 14 belonging to Al Zaeem. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.33.

The last league match between these clubs was UAE Pro League match day 9 on 07/12/2024 when it finished Al-Ain 4-0 Baniyas.

🧠 Prediction

We’re of the view that Baniyas will likely be able to put one past this Al-Ain outfit, although just one goal likely won’t be as many as they will have scored against them.

Our selection here is for a close game with a 1-2 win for Al-Ain at the end of the match. Looking forward to this.
