Aqaba form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Aqaba have only managed 1 win, 4 draws and 3 losses from their games here at King Abdullah International Stadium. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts.

Aqaba shared the glory with Sahab in their last match, an away game that ended all square 4-4. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
