Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Al Fahaheel in 8th and Al Arabi SC in 6th place.
- Al Fahaheel have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Al Arabi SC have not yet lost a game away.
It's no vacation for neither Fahaheel nor Al Arabi SC as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
