Al Simawa form and stats

With 4 wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Al Simawa, who have the fewest scored goals (22) in Iraqi League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Al Simawa are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Al Simawa, their manager and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The fans are hoping that Al Simawa will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Iraqi League game against Al Shorta. Preceding that match was the home game against Al Talaba that was lost 1-3.

Al Simawa aren't scoring a lot here at Al Samawah Stadium with only 11 goals from 16 games. On the other hand, Al Simawa have conceded 18 goals.

Naft Al-Janoob form and stats

There's been little loot from Naft Al-Janoob's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 16 away games. Naft Al-Janoob only have 4 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 3 draws. Three has not been a lucky number for Naft Al-Janoob as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Naft Al-Wasat match. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Naft Al-Janoob are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Naft Al-Janoob failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Al Talaba that ended with defeat 1-2. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Naft wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

The attacking power of Naft Al-Janoob when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored in 16 matches. Naft Al-Janoob have conceded 25 goals in these games.
