The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Al Tadhamon so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-4 (win-draw-lose). With the Tadhamon losing streak of six defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Tadhamon have lost on their last two travels.

Home advantage was not enough for Tadhamon in their previous game, as they lost their Premier League-match, hosting Al Kuwait, 0-3. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Al Fahaheel wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
