Al-Nasr

DLLLLD ⚠

Al-Nasr go into this fixture following a 2-2 UAE Pro League tied result vs Al-Wahda.

The only player to score from Al-Nasr was Ali Mabkhout (79'). Omar Kharbin (26') was the scorer for Al-Wahda.

It has been all too rare in recent games where Al-Nasr have kept a clean sheet. In fact, Al-Nasr have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 9 goals in the process. We will have to find out whether or not that trend can be continued on into this next match.

Sharjah

WWLLWD

In their previous fixture, Sharjah drew 0-0 in the UAE Pro League match with Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai.

For 5 of the past 6 games featuring Sharjah, a notably low volume of goals have been scored between them and opposing sides. The overall average number of goals per game in that spell is a paltry 1.17, with the number of goals averaged by Al Malek standing at 0.67.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Checking on their prior head-to-head meetings dating back to 03/04/2022 tells us that Al-Nasr have won 1 of them & Sharjah 3, with the tally of draws standing at 2.

A combined sum of 13 goals were yielded between them in these games, with 4 for The Blue Wave and 9 for Al Malek. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.17.

The last league match featuring the two was UAE Pro League match day 8 on 22/11/2024 which finished with the scoreline of Sharjah 3-0 Al-Nasr.

ℹ️ Team News: Al-Nasr

There’s just a single fitness concern for the Al-Nasr boss Alfred Schreuder to be concerned with from an otherwise complete group. 8   (Al-Nasr) will miss out.

🗞️ Team News: Sharjah

Thanks to a mainly available group, there’s only the lone fitness problem for the Sharjah boss Cosmin Olăroiu to contend with. 2   (Sharjah FC) won’t be playing here.

🧠 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Sharjah and Al-Nasr may both struggle to make a breakthrough here.

Let’s see how it plays out, but a draw with few scoring chances is looking likely to us. We’re therefore expecting a hard-fought 0-0 score at the end of this game.
