Struggling Al Ahli will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Al-Hidd in the upcoming league round. It’s 7th vs 1st and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
It's no vacation for neither Al Ahli nor Al-Hidd as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
Al Ahli form and stats
Al Ahli have played 5 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 0-2-3 (wins-draws-losses). With eleven home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Al Ahli fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Al Ittihad game long ago, can be stopped today.
Al Ahli lost their last game at Al Riffa (placed 4th) after a 1-3 scoreline. Before that match, a win away at Al Hala.
Al Ahli have scored 4 league goals here from 5 matches, not a lot. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Al Ahli defense is not exactly impregnable. 8 goals conceded from 5 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
