It's still early in the Premier League season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Budaiya - Al Ahli preview!

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

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.

Al Ahli form and stats

1-1-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Al Ahli in their Premier League matches away.

Ahli play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting Al-Najma (placed 9th). A 0-3 defeat away at East Riffa before that.

Goals are few and far between in Ahli's away league games. Only 2 goals from 4 travels. Al Ahli's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.
