• Coach Jamal Mahmoud aware of risks as Al-Wehdat faces Al-Ahli

Referee Ahmad Yaqub will officiate the Al-Wehdat vs. Al-Ahli clash, assisted by linesmen Ahmad Al-Ruwaili and Farid Al-Saqar, with Mohamed Al-Badarna serving as the fourth official.

The match takes place on Tuesday as part of the 13th round of the Jordanian Pro League.

Al-Wehdat: Seeking Identity and Fan Reconciliation

The "Green Giant" hosts Al-Ahli at King Abdullah II Stadium in Al-Qweismeh at 6:30 PM, facing immense pressure from fans and management. Sitting fourth with 23 points, Al-Wehdat must secure a win—not only to stay in the title race but also to erase the shock defeat to Shabab Al-Ordon last round.

Coach Jamal Mahmoud knows that another setback could plunge the team into a dark period, especially after a bitter season that saw them lose both the Super Cup and league shield, as well as an early exit from Asian competitions. Key players Anas Al-Awadhat and Mohannad Samrin are expected to unlock defensive blocks and secure victory ahead of the crucial derby in the next round.

Al-Ahli: Clinging to Survival

Meanwhile, the "White Lion" endures one of its toughest seasons, occupying the relegation zone with just 5 points from 12 games.

Coach Raed Al-Dawood aims to surprise Al-Wehdat and exploit their mental pressure to gain a morale-boosting result. Al-Ahli relies on the experience of Ahmad Abu Kbeer and the movements of Brazilian forward Weldson Silva to launch counterattacks capable of shocking Al-Wehdat’s defense. A draw against last season’s runner-up could feel like a victory, restoring confidence before the decisive final rounds of the league.

With Al-Wehdat striving to return to winning ways and Al-Ahli seeking a stunning upset, Jordanian fans anticipate an exciting evening of football under the whistle of international referee Ahmad Yaqub, in a match that could heavily influence both the top and bottom of the league table.
