Qatar vs UAE: Top Free Betting Tips

Qatar and the United Arab Emirates are scheduled to face each other in the third round of the Gulf Cup of Nations on Friday, 13 January. Both teams will be eager for points as they have got the back of a defeat in the competition before this game.

Match Result Prediction: Qatar to Win

Qatar couldn’t repeat the winning form in the last game but they proved the better side in the H2Hs against the United Arab Emirates. The Maroons have won all of the previous three H2Hs against the upcoming rivals. On the other hand, United Arab Emirates has also lost both of their opening games of the tournament. So we back Qatar to repeat the previous trend against the United Arab  Emirates and win this game.

Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals

Qatar has found the back of the net three times in the last two outings but they have recorded a decent flow of goals in the recent H2Hs against UAE, scoring 13 in the last three duels. All of the previous five H2Hs of these teams have also ended with high-scoring totals. Both teams have also leaked goals in most of the latest outings in different competitions. So we can expect this game to go over 2.5 goals at the end.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Qatar

Qatar hit the back of the net in both of the previous outings of the competition and scored twice against Kuwait in one of them. The United Arab Emirates has also been on the scoring side in three of the last four outings, however, managed an average of only one goal per game. The United Arab Emirates has also hit the target only twice in the last three meetings against the Maroons. Hence, we expect Qatar to take a  2-1 victory before the final whistle blows.

The Maroons had a lead of 1-0 in the first half but the poor form of the defence cost them a 1-2 defeat at the end against Bahrain. But following a victory in two attempts, Qatar are present in the second position on the points table of Group B. There is no fitness or suspension issue in the team ahead of this game.

UAE Preview

The White One faced Kuwait in the last game and conceded a 0-1 defeat, allowing the goal in the additional minutes. The consecutive defeats have got the team to the last of the points table. The manager Rodolfo Arruabarrena will have an injury-free squad to make a selection for this game.
