League Cup Championship in the Emirates with one-sided interest, since if there is a team that can be motivated in this game are the home side, with victory remaining in the game of qualification in the next phase. The guests of Al Jazeera have no hope of qualifying.
Eric Gerets's Al Jazeera has never made any difference to this cup, but it is an indifferent event that is made to keep players in tough days of national teams. For another game they will use several young and substitute players. Beyond the international with the Emirates teams, Vucinic and Pitroipa will be absent, while the other two foreigners are likely to eat and be protected.
Al Wasl is expected to play with key players and all the stars on the pitch. Not that this will give some terrible qualitative difference to the hosts, but as well as giving a lead that remains to see if they can take advantage of it.
The 2.12 that stoiximan gives us for Al Wasl is marginally acceptable and worth a bet.
