It's only the second game in the Premier League for these squads. And it's all to play for here at Amman International Stadium as Sahab host Shabab Al Ordon. Check out this preview!
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
Both contenders have had a decent time to rest since their previous game. Let's wish for an energetic fixture!
Sahab form and stats
The season before, Sahab's league results were 5 wins, 9 draws and 8 losses, results that produced 8th spot in the Premier League. Over these 22 matches they scored {18 goals} and gave away 23. Playing as the host team in the last season Sahab produced 3-5-3 (win-draw-lost) with {14 goals} and 14 conceded.
Sahab shared the glory with Aqaba in their last match, an away game that ended all square 2-2.
Before that game, a home loss in the Shield Cup against Al Ramtha. The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Sahab have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 13 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 5 and lost 4.
Shabab Al Ordon form and stats

Ahead of that, 2-2 at home against Al Jalil in the Shield Cup. So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Shabab Al Ordon playing away and similar expectations, we found 10 relevant matches. Results were 5 Shabab Al Ordon wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats.
