The league table in Division 1 tells a story about these teams so far, with Al Jahra leading Burgan by 14 points. Match preview to follow:
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Al Jahra form and stats
3-1-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Division 1 numbers at home for Al Jahra, who have the most scored goals (20) in Division 1, so far this season.
Before that, Al Jahra drew at home versus Al Fahaheel.

A decent goal production from Jahra in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 6 league matches. On the other hand, Jahra have conceded 8 goals.
Burgan form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Burgan, who have the most conceded goals (19) in Division 1, so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-4 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give Burgan much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Al Jahra will be a tough nut to crack.
Burgan play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Al Sulaibikhat (placed 2nd). Preceding that, the 2-6 home loss versus Khaitan.
The schedule is very tough for Burgan now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Division 1 game at Khaitan is waiting in only four days.
