Al Wahda is looking for a new victory that will grant it a transit visa to the League Cup quarter-finals, when it receives Khor Fakkan, at 6 pm today, at Al Nahyan Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
Al Annabi needs to win with a goal without a response, to guarantee himself a seat among the adults, after the match ended with a 3-2 victory for Khorfakkan, a result that makes the visiting team have more than one scenario to overcome the obstacle of unity. In the first leg in the cup, they tied in the fourth round of the ADNOC Professional League without goals.
The two teams are currently experiencing their best periods. Al Wahda, under the leadership of its young coach, French Gregory, managed to win the last two matches against Al Dhafra and Sharjah, with a great result and a great performance, to jump to the league runner-up by four points from the leaders Al Ain.
And Gregory changed the faded image of the unit with the former coach, the Dutch Tin Kat.
The Khorfakkan match boosted the French coach's chances of transforming from an emergency coach to a permanent coach, especially since the team's performance under his leadership was well received by the club's fans and analysts, who all praised the players' bids under his leadership.
The French coach had previously led Al-Wahda, last season, in two matches he won in the league, after he took over the task temporarily after the dismissal of the Serbian coach Razovic, and before the arrival of Tin Can.
The unit is missing the efforts of a group of players who were called to the team, led by goalkeeper Mohammed Al Shamsi, Ahmed Rashid, Tahnoun Al Zaabi, Ismail Matar, Abdullah Hamad and Mohammed Al Menhali, and the Syrian Omar Khribin, who was called up to his country.
On the other hand, Khorfakkan is armed with its recent strong performances, reaching 15 points in the league in fifth place, two points behind Al-Wahda, in addition to its advantage in going to the cup.
• Khorfakkan has the advantage of winning 3-2 in the go.
