Percentiles from 0 to 100: 90 means better than 90% of clubs in the league, or in the world. Higher means more of that quality. The profile describes the club. It is not part of the score. Missing bars mean there is not enough data yet. How the profile works.
This season they are taking 2.17 points a game from 6 matches, while their performances have been worth 2.40. That is 1.4 points fewer than the football deserved, which our model calls fair. Their opponents this season have averaged a rating of 1198, about the league average.
For context, the next one below is Shabab Al Ahli Dubai, rated 1413. Their lead over the second-best side is 25 rating points.
Compared with the rest of their league, their style stands out for very high touches in the opposition box, very high passes completed close to goal and very high quality of chances.
On rating, they play like a tier-2 side, 4 tiers above the level of their own league.
The UAE Pro League (United Arab Emirates) itself is 29th–61st in our world league ranking, where its average club is 1.67 goals per 90 worse than the top-five average. This league is provisional: match results and player moves place this league far apart, so we show a range, not a rank.
How sure are we? Confidence in this rating is medium: the range of 73rd to 285th is where the club's true world rank sits four times in five. Results to 25 Oct 2026.
