At 7:30 pm today, attention turns to Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium, which will host the derby in the capital, Abu Dhabi, between Al Jazira and its guest Al Wahda, as part of the tenth stage of the ADNOC Professional League.

The match is of great importance, as it will determine the position of the two teams in the battle for the lead.

Al-Jazira occupies fifth place with 17 points, and his victory will mean his attack on Al-Wahda center, as Al-Annabi has 19 points in second place.

On the other hand, the visiting team also wants to win to take the lead, hoping that its direct competitors, Sharjah (the leader), and Shabab Al-Ahly (third) stumble.

The numbers are similar between the two teams since the start of the ADNOC Professional League, as they played 26 matches, winning each team in nine, and attended the draw in eight matches.

They were not satisfied with this rapprochement, but both of them won at home on six occasions, and outside their rules on three occasions.

Despite the fluctuations that Al Jazeera experienced in some periods of the league, he managed to dust himself off, and achieved an important victory outside his rules at the expense of victory with two goals without a response, to return to the fore again after an unexpected loss from Ajman in the previous round with a goal without a response.

Al-Jazira has the tools and capabilities that enable it to stop the strong attack of Al-Wahda, which managed to achieve six consecutive victories in the league, in the largest series of consecutive victories achieved by a team in the league this season.

Attention will be focused more on Al-Jazira striker Ali Mabkhout and Al-Wahda striker Pedro. The former has not been able to visit the nets of its opponents in the last three matches to fall in the scorers' ranking to the runner-up, while Pedro is living his best period with Al Annabi, after he succeeded in leading his team to victory over Sharjah With a goal without a response, and contributed to the victory of Annabi against Dibba with three goals without a response, although the team played for more than an hour with 10 players after the expulsion of Faris Jumaa, who will be absent from the squad today for the accumulation of cards.
