Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Malkiya & Khalidiya face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Federation Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
This should be an engrossing fixture with lots of fun and energy as both squads are well rested since they last played a game. Let's go!
Malkiya form and stats
Malkiya participated in Federation Cup the last season, where they reached the 5th round.OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Malkiya's two home games in the Second Division so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Arab Contractors Stadium.
The Malkiya fans got no joy from their last game, a Federation Cup duel also played here at Arab Contractors Stadium: A 0-3 defeat against Alhassam.
Preceding that match was a Second Division defeat to Qalali (1-2).It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Malkiya at home in the league. 4 on target and 4 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Khalidiya form and stats
Last season their Federation Cup adventure ended in the 5th round.The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier League travels is 1 win, 0 draws and 0 defeats.
The followers enjoyed Khalidiya's previous fixture versus Qalali, a Federation Cup win (6-0) played at home.
A home win before that, celebrating 4-0 vs Al-Hidd.It's early days yet, but Khalidiya has scored 2 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
