Al Fahaheel form and stats

Things could have gone better for Al Fahaheel in their Premier League away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

Fahaheel had fun at their own home (Sabah Al Salem Stadium) last time out, beating Al Tadhamon 2-0.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Al Kuwait's place.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Al Fahaheel when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 4 matches with the visitors losing 3 times, drawing 1 and winning 0 games.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Al Fahaheel have scored 4 goals in 3 league games away.
