The Persian Gulf Pro League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 13th and 8th respectively.
Gol Gohar and Sanat Naft 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.
Sanat Naft have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Gol Gohar form and stats
Gol Gohar are yet to win a home game, having collected 2 points from their first two Persian Gulf Pro League games here at Imam Ali Stadium. The Gol Gohar fans aren't used to losing here at Imam Ali Stadium and will expect new points from this game. Gol Gohar has played 26 games in a row here without a defeat.
In their previous game, the manager Vinko Begović led his Gol Gohar to a defeat in the Persian Gulf Pro League match away at Tractor Sazi. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Imam Ali Stadium. Before that, Gol Gohar drew at home versus Pars Jam Bushehr.
This is expected to be a close game, with Gol Gohar perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Gol Gohar as a small favourite), we find five games. Gol Gohar has won 1 of these, drawn 3 and lost 1.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Hazfi Cup game versus Naft Masjed Soleyman in only four days. This game is also played here at Imam Ali Stadium.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Gol Gohar at home in the league. 2 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Sanat Naft form and stats
Sanat Naft are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Persian Gulf Pro League, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).
There were no winners in Sanat Naft's previous match, a Persian Gulf Pro League home game that ended 1-1 vs Zob Ahan (placed 12th). Prior to that match, the Sanat Naft manager D. Skočić faced defeat when travelling to Persepolis and losing 0-1.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Sanat Naft playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were 3 Sanat Naft wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Hazfi Cup trip to Qashqai.
It's early days yet, but Sanat Naft has scored 1 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last eight matches): Gol Gohar 2 wins, 2 draws and Sanat Naft 4 victories. As for goals, 4 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 4 games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
