Al Kholood form and stats

Only two Division 1 home games for Al Kholood so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Al Kholood, their manager and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Al Kholood's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Al Sahel (placed 12th).

Preceding that game was the away draw at Al Hazm that finished 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Kholood have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 5 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 1 and lost 0.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Al Kholood at home in the league. 2 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Al Sahel form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Division 1 for Al Sahel with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.

It's the second away game in a row for Al Sahel, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Al Kholood (placed 9th) last time out. That win felt good as this team had gone three league rounds without victory.

Before that, Al Sahel travelled to Al Faisaly and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Al Sahel playing away and similar expectations, we found 4 relevant matches. Results were 1 Sahel win, 1 draw and 2 defeats.

The attacking power of Al Sahel when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. 4 goals have been conceded by Al Sahel in these games.

Head 2 Head

Previous two meetings between these contenders: Kholood won one, Al Sahel were winners in one and we saw zero draws. two games with over 2,5 goals, zero matches with less than 2,5 goals.
