The ADNOC Pro League is gearing up for an exciting second matchweek of fixtures set to span across three days, from August 25th to 27th.
Teams are fueled with ambitions – Some are aiming to rebound from initial stumbles, while others aim to sustain their winning streaks.
Among the headlining encounters this weekend are Al Jazira’s face-off with Al Wahda and the thrilling matchup between Sharjah and Al Wasl.
On Friday, August 25th, the action gets underway as Emirates takes on Ajman at 6:00 PM.
After their inaugural round defeats, both teams are fiercely chasing their season's first win.

Later, at 8:30 PM, the Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium will be the epicenter of excitement as Al Jazira square off against Al Wahda.
While Al Jazira is on a quest for a second consecutive victory, Al Wahda are determined to bounce back.

The day starts with Hatta hosting Al Ain at the Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Stadium at 6:00 PM.
Hatta's hopes to notch their first win might be challenged by an Al Ain squad who showcased a commendable performance in their league opener.
Simultaneously, Al Bataeh and Ittihad Kalba are set to engage in a fierce showdown.
