Al Nasar form and stats

5-1-0 is the performance here so far in the Premier League, giving Al Nasar a total of 16 from their 6 games here. Outstanding results! We have seen two home losses in a row now for Al Nasar, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

The fans are hoping that Al Nasar will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 2-4 away loss in the Premier League game against Khaitan. Preceding that match was a defeat to Al Sahel (0-1).

A goal frenzy last time out for Nasar, with a total of 6 goals in the match against Khaitan. Fun stuff to watch!

The match schedule is unforgiving for Al Nasar as they have a new game in only three days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Kazma are visiting.

Goals decide football matches and Nasar are scoring many of them at home; 12 on target from 6 league matches. Nasar have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 2 goals.
