Al-Jazirah is facing an easy confrontation in theory when it meets Fujairah in the 21st round of the Arabian Gulf League at 5:45 pm at Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, but the scenario of his match against Hatta in the last round makes him anxious about the "wolves".

Al-Jazirah, the 44-point leader, scored a difficult victory over Hatta, with a goal unanswered, from a penalty kick by Ali Mabkhout, although Hatta ranks 14th in the standings.

Al-Jazeera hopes to get a moral boost before going into the derby in the next round outside its home against Al-Wehda, and Al-Jazeera seeks to repeat its superiority over Fujairah after winning the first leg with three goals without response.

On the other hand, Fujairah seeks to achieve a draw at the very least, in order to strengthen its chances of avoiding the specter of relegation, especially since it has achieved one victory in the last 10 matches, tied once and lost in eight matches.

For his part, the coach of the island, Dutch Marcel Kaiser, said: "There are no easy matches in the league, and all competitors are performing strongly, especially in this crucial period of the season, and all upcoming confrontations will be very difficult for all teams, regardless of arrangement."
