With only two days to go until kick-off, both teams have distinct motivations that will shape the outcome of this crucial match.
Form and Momentum
Al Ittihad enters this clash riding a wave of momentum. With an impressive track record in the league, the home side's recent form is nothing short of remarkable, having won five consecutive matches.

Conversely, Damac FC, currently languishing in 14th place with 35 points, struggles to find their footing. Their recent fixture ended in disappointment as they succumbed to a narrow 1-0 defeat against Al Fateh.

Their challenges extend to both ends of the pitch, having scored only 37 goals but conceded 49.
