Al Hala are unlocking their away locker room to Budaiya for another important fixture after their 1-1 result against 1st-placed Al Riffa.
- Al Hala have the most dropped points from leading position (9) in Premier League
- Budaiya have the most conceded goals (23) in Premier League
This is a game between neighbours, usually meaning extra nervousness and significance.
Al Hala and Budaiya should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Al Hala form and stats
With 1 Premier League win, 3 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Al Hala are certainly not brimming with confidence.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Hala, who played 1-1 against Al Riffa. That match was also played at this venue (Sheikh Ali bin Mohammed Al Khalifa Stadium).
Ahead of that match, Al Hala lost 0-2 at home to Muharraq.Hala have conceded 11 from these games.
Budaiya form and stats
Budaiya have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 1-1-5 (7 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Budaiya's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Budaiya won their last game, 2-0 versus East Riffa played at home.
Prior to that match, the Budaiya manager faced defeat when travelling to Khalidiya and losing 1-4.The visitors have scored 4 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Budaiya's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 11 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
This isn't the first time these parties meet this season, as the history books show this recent fixture: Hala - Budaiya 2-1. Head-2-head stats last five meetings: three - two - zero (Al Hala wins - draws - Budaiya wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.Al Hala missing players
