Al Sahel form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier League travels is 4 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on the Sahel manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Sahel are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, one draw and zero defeats. From a total of two matches.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Sahel have scored 10 goals in 7 league games away. As opposed to that, Sahel have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The last H2H meeting was Al Sahel - Shabab 2-1, played this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - four - two (Shabab wins - draws - Al Sahel wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
