Matches involving Al-Ain have tended to be entertaining affairs of late with plenty of scoring the rule rather than the exception.
Over their past 6 games alone, the sum of 22 goals have flown in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.67 goals per game) with 12 of them accredited to Al-Ain. That pattern isn’t assured to be continued into this match, of course.

In that match, Al-Hilal managed 64% possession and 22 attempts on goal with 7 on target. For Al-Hilal, the goals were scored by Saleh Al Shehri (7′), Malcom (42′, 48′) and Abdullah Al Hamdan (96′).
For their opponents, Al-Khaleej had 11 shots on goal with 1 on target. Mohamed Sherif (9′) was the scorer for Al-Khaleej.
With their forward play coming to the fore of late, Al-Hilal have enjoyed getting themselves an abundance of goals in their past six clashes (18 to be precise). That has earned them an enviable average of 3 goals scored per game for this period of time.
