Al Wasl travel to Saqr Bin Mohammad al Qassimi Stadium to take on Khorfakkan in what promises to be a lively ADNOC Pro League encounter filled with attacking flair.

Al Wasl have scored in every ADNOC Pro League match they’ve played against Khorfakkan, finding the net 25 times to their opponents’ 16.
Fabio Lima has been a standout performer in these fixtures, contributing 3 goals and 6 assists, while Nicolás Giménez has chipped in with 2 goals and 2 assists.
Moroccan star Tarek Tissoudali has also been in sensational form for Khorfakkan since joining in February, directly contributing to 16 goals (10 goals and 6 assists), making him the most productive player in the league during that period and the second-highest scorer this season behind Laba Kodjo, who has netted 12.
Meanwhile, Khorfakkan have shown remarkable efficiency in front of goal despite their limited attacking output.
They currently boast the highest shot conversion rate in the ADNOC Pro League this season (26%), even though they are among the teams with the fewest total shots, just 39 attempts, the same tally as Bani Yas.
