Jordan vs United Aran Emirates Head-to-Head

The two Arabian Peninsula rivals have squared off six times across all competitions. All of their meetings thus far have come in competitive fixtures and this will be their first encounter in a friendly fixture.

The two teams have been evenly matched in their six games so far as three games have ended in stalemates. The UAE have a slight upper hand in the fixture and have two wins to their name. Jordan have only been able to get the better of Al Abyad on one occasion.

They last met in the Asian Cup 2007 qualifiers, with that game ending in a goalless draw.
