The UAE face hosts Saudi Arabia in the final of the 27th Arabian Gulf Cup on Tuesday in Jeddah, with both sides aiming to end long waits for regional football's most prestigious title.

The Whites secured their place in the showpiece match after defeating Oman 1-0 in the semi-finals, while Saudi Arabia advanced after edging Qatar 3-2 on penalties following a goalless semi-final.

The UAE are chasing a third Gulf Cup crown and a first since 2013, while Saudi Arabia are seeking their fourth title and their first since 2004.

The final will be played at Alinma Stadium in King Abdullah Sports City, Jeddah. Kick-off is at 10:00 pm UAE time.
