Preview: Rimal Host City FC at Jebel Ali

Rimal Al-Sahra SC bring an unbeaten start to the 2025/26 UAE Division 3 season to the Jebel Ali Sports Complex, seeking to extend a perfect record of three wins from three matches against City FC.

The new club have conceded only two goals in their opening three fixtures, establishing themselves as serious contenders in the division with a fortress home ground and potent attack that has yielded nine goals.

City FC, despite being well-placed in the division, arrive at a side that would prove nearly impenetrable at home throughout the season, and breaking down Rimal's defence will present a stern test.

A fourth consecutive victory would maintain momentum and reinforce the new club's early platform in the title race, but the visitors arrive as a genuine challenge to the perfect opening.
