Al Shabab and Al Sahel have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Premier League.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Al Shabab form and stats
Al Shabab have played 3 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).
The Shabab crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Kazma here at Mohammed Al-Hammad Stadium in a Premier League match. In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Al Fahaheel.
Al Shabab are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 3 goals in 3 games. On the other hand, Al Shabab have conceded 3 goals.
Al Sahel form and stats
It's gone fairly well in the Premier League away games so far for Al Sahel with six points collected from three matches. Sahel seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Sahel play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Al Arabi (placed 8th). A home win before that, celebrating 3-0 vs Khaitan.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Premier League trip to Burgan.
Sahel have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 6 goals from 3 away matches. Sahel have conceded 5 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Shabab, five draws and one win for Al Sahel. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.Al Shabab missing players
