Al Najoom have only collected 17 points from their away games in the Division 1, after 4-5-9 (18 played). Having won their last three away games Najoom has no reason to fear anyone.

Najoom play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting Al Ansar (placed 19th). A 1-3 loss hosting Al Jabalain before that.

Najoom have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 18 league away games 23 goals have been scored. For Al Najoom, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
