Baniyas

LWLLWL

Baniyas will be looking for an improved result here after the 1-0 UAE Pro League loss in their previous game against Al-Bataeh.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times where Baniyas have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Baniyas have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 games, leaking 12 goals during that time. That trend won’t necessarily be sustained into this match, however.

Khorfakkan

Throughout their 6 previous matches, Nebojša Jovović's Khorfakkan have converted a total of 8 times, yielding them a goals per game average of 1.33.

📋 Team News: Baniyas

Regarding absentees, there’s just the sole fitness concern for the Baniyas gaffer Darko Milanič to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group. 11   (FC Baniyas) is sidelined.

⚡ Prediction

We’re thinking that Khorfakkan and Baniyas may well both score, with little between these two teams.

We’ll see, but this looks like it could end up all-square. We’re therefore anticipating a very even match with a 1-1 score at the conclusion of the game.
