[Arabian Gulf Cup] There does not seem to be enough firepower on the Yemen side to trouble the Saudis.

The festive season is upon us, and all Yemen will want for Christmas is three points in midweek, something they have come close to achieving several times this year.


That first victory continues to elude them in 2024, with this team collecting three draws so far this year while losing three matches by a single goal.


Yemen have only scored in one of their last 17 Gulf Cup affairs, and it came on matchday two of the 2023 tournament when they were beaten 3-2 by Oman.

It was a less-than-ideal beginning to the Gulf Cup for the Saudis, who lost their third consecutive game at this competition dating back to 2023.


Since returning to the national team in late October, Herve Renard has only claimed one victory in his four matches at the helm (3-1 over Trinidad and Tobago).


In 18 previous matches with Yemen, the Green Falcons have never lost, winning all six of their games against them in this tournament without conceding a single goal.
