Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

Busaiteen form and stats

No Premier League points yet away for Busaiteen, from their first 3 matches. It's a growing despair in Busaiteen as they have recorded three consecutive losses. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on M. Eid, the Busaiteen manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Busaiteen have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 279 minutes ago. Ibraheem Khojali was the goal scorer.

Busaiteen are travelling again after losing away to Al-Najma in their previous match (0-1). Preceding that game, the 0-3 loss visiting East Riffa's place.

Busaiteen are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 0 goals from 3 away games. Busaiteen have conceded 5 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

As for the last six games between these two teams, there's zero Al Ahli victories, zero draws and six Busaiteen wins. Over/under statistics; four of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.
