Struggling Sahab will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Al Jazeera in the upcoming league round. It’s 10th vs 2nd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.
Sahab form and stats
Sahab have collected 3 points from their Premier League home games so far after 1-0-4. The home stadium (King Abdullah International Stadium) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Sahab it's been a house of straw as the last four games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?
Stress levels are on the rise for Sahab's attacking players as they have now played 221 minutes without scoring in a league game. S. Raja was their last goal scorer.
Sahab shared the glory with Aqaba in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Preceding that match was a defeat to Al Hussein (0-1).
Sahab are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 5 games. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Sahab have allowed the opposition to score 13 goals here at King Abdullah International Stadium.
