The two sides

Sharjah FC carry a model rating of 6.39 against 6.72 for Shabab Al Ahli Dubai. The scale is anchored so that an average side in one of Europe's big five leagues sits at 6.85, and it is adjusted for the strength of each team's league, so the two numbers are comparable even across borders.

The rest of the season
