DomainJava.com – Prediction for UAE vs Oman in the Gulf Cup match, An exciting duel will be presented in the follow-up match to the 2024 Gulf Nations Cup tournament between United Arab Emirates vs Oman at the Jaber Al-Mubarak Al-Hamad Stadium, Friday (27/12/2024) evening WIB.
The United Arab Emirates hopes to achieve victory in this match, in order to maintain its chances of qualifying for the semifinals. Previously, they were only able to achieve 1 draw and 1 defeat.
Currently the United Arab Emirates is in 3rd place with a collection of 1 point. They still have a chance to qualify if they are able to beat Oman with a big score, and while hoping Kuwait loses or draws against Qatar.
Meanwhile, Oman currently leads the Group A standings with a collection of 4 points, the result of 1 win and 1 draw. A win would make Oman the first country to qualify for the semifinals of the 2024 Gulf Nations Cup.
If you look at the results of the two matches, Oman is clearly the favorite because they have a squad of players that cannot be underestimated.
This was proven when they faced Qatar in the last match. Having fallen behind the former World Cup host country, Oman is slowly succeeding in turning things around.
The 2024 Gulf Cup or also known as the Arabian Gulf Cup is a regional football tournament for 8 countries in the Arabian Gulf region. In short, this tournament is the same as the AFF Cup which is intended for Southeast Asian countries.
Oman will face the UAE on Thursday in the 26th Arabian Gulf Cup as they look to book their place in the knockout stages. With four points from two matches, the Reds are top of Group A and need a draw to reach the next round.
They started the campaign by drawing level with Kuwait in a 1-1 draw before coming back from a deficit against Qatar to win 2-1. Ranked 80th in the world, Rashid Jaber’s side have won the cup twice but have emerged as dark horses to go all the way this time.
Meanwhile, the UAE also started with a 1-1 draw with Qatar but lost 2-1 to Kuwait after taking an early lead, ending their three-match unbeaten run across competitions.
Now in their final group game, Sons of Zayed need a win but also hope Kuwait, who are second in the group with four points, do not win against bottom side Qatar.
There have been 33 clashes between the two sides, with the UAE winning 15 and losing five.
Excluding the penalty shootout win, the Reds last beat Sons of Zayed in January 2007 in the Gulf Cup.
Four of their last seven meetings have ended in a draw.

UAE vs Oman Prediction
Omani forward Issam Al-Sabhi was the top scorer in the 26th Arabian Gulf Cup, with three goals: one goal against Kuwait and two goals against Qatar.
The UAE is ranked 63rd in the world, while their southern neighbors are 17 places below them.
UAE could be in for a scintillating performance as they look to win in their last chance to save a place in the knockout stages. However, their attack lacked conviction in the cup while they also looked shaky at the back. Oman, led by the in-form Al-Sabhi, will try to take advantage of it.
UAE vs Oman Score Prediction 1-2
