Al Ahli form and stats

Al Ahli have played three Premier League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Three draws in a row here at Stād al-Bahrayn al-Watanī for Ahli, who might be willing to risk more at some point in hope of a win.

Rashed was the last player to score a league goal for Ahli and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Al Ahli haven't scored in 289 minutes.

A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Al Ahli, who played 1-1 against Al-Najma (after extra-time, 7-8 on penalties). That match was also played at this venue (Stād al-Bahrayn al-Watanī).

A 0-0 draw away in the Premier League before that, with Khalidiya the opponent.

The Ahli fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. On the other hand, Al Ahli have conceded 3 goals. Ahli has at home met teams with this table position (low), two times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.

Al-Hidd form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Premier League for Al-Hidd with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts. Visiting Al-Hidd has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Al-Hidd might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Khalidiya proved too strong as Al-Hidd slumped to a 0-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Stād al-Bahrayn al-Watanī.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Manama in the Premier League.

The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Al-Hidd have conceded 3 goals in these away matches.
