Al Sahel form and stats

Al Sahel's results here at Al Sahel Stadium in the Premier League have been very modest with 2 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats.

Khaldi was the last player to score a league goal for Sahel and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Al Sahel haven't scored in 186 minutes.

The home team returns to Al Sahel Stadium after drawing with Al Jahra (placed 4th) on their last time out; the game ended 0-0.

Prior to that, an away loss at Al Arabi.

The Al Sahel fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.

Before that one, a nice away victory 3-0 at Al Tadhamon.
