Al Wasl vs Al Sadd Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Al Sadd look to take their winning streak to six against hosts Al-Wasl in the ACL Elite.

Al Wasl and Al Sadd will face each other in their upcoming match at the AFC Champions League. The high voltage match is scheduled for 4th November. Both these teams are sitting comfortably on the top half of the West Region’s table.

For those unversed, the AFC Champions League is divided into two regions (East and West) based on the club’s parent origin. While the Qatari club (Al-Sadd) are currently in the third spot UAE’s pride (Al-Wasl) are in the fifth position.

Al-Sadd has played three matches so far and have won two of them. They have earned seven points in this Elite-level Asian competition. The Doha-based club drew their first game against Al-Ain (1-1). Since then they have managed to win all their matches, be it in the Champions League or their domestic league (Qatar Stars League).

On the contrary, Al-Wasl have found themselves on the losing end in their league games. They have lost back-to-back games against Khor Fakkan (4-3) and Al-Ain (4-2). So that fact might play on their minds even though both competitions (namely the AFC Champions League Elite and UAE Pro League) are different from one another.

Kick Off:

Monday, 4th November at 7:30 pm IST

Location: Zabeel Stadium, Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Players to Watch:

Haris Seferovic (Al-Wasl)

Haris Seferovic is a well-known name in the football world. The Swiss international has played across Europe in some major clubs including the likes of Real Sociedad, Fiorentina, and Eintracht Frankfurt among others. However, it was his spell in Benfica that will likely come to mind when talking about his performances.

Seferovic scored 57 goals for the Portuguese club in about 127 appearances. He was also prolific in the national colours. The Sursee-born player scored 25 goals for Switzerland in a career that spanned a decade.

Rafa Mujica (Al Sadd)

Rafa Mujica has found his groove at Al Sadd. The former Barcelona B player spent six years in Spain playing for clubs like Oviedo, Villareal B, Extremadura and Las Palmas among others. Despite having latent talent he always went under the radar.

However, it was his two-year stint at Portuguese club Arouca where he found his true potential as a striker. He scored 28 goals in 57 appearances for the club. Following this he carried his form to his new home in Qatar. He is the second-highest goalscorer in the Qatar Stars League this season and is proving to be a handful for his opponents.
