Get ready for Naft Al-Janoob - Erbil! Despite the season performances so far this game should be cracking!
- Naft Al-Janoob have the most conceded goals in the first half (21) in Iraqi League
- Erbil have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
The visiting Erbil played their last game only four days ago, a Iraqi League match.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on sand pitch and that the visiting Erbil have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on sand pitch is 0-1-0 (win-draw-loss) from one match.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 800 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Relegation threatens Al-Janoob who should definitely be looking for some points here. Erbil are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.
