Al Tadhamon form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Al Tadhamon, who have the most conceded goals (33) in Premier League, have only managed 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Ali Al-Salem Al-Sabah Stadium. Three consecutive losses here at Ali Al-Salem Al-Sabah Stadium is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Al Tadhamon manager and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Al Shabab (placed 6th) in the Premier League. Ahead of that match, Tadhamon lost 1-3 at home to Al Salmiyah.

Tadhamon are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 8 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Tadhamon defense is not exactly impregnable. 13 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Kazma form and stats

Kazma have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 2-1-4 (7 played). Recent form does not give Kazma much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Al Tadhamon will be a tough nut to crack. Kazma has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Kazma have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 254 minutes ago. Bruno Paulo was the goal scorer.

Kazma might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Al Nasar proved too strong as Kazma slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Al-Sadaqua Walsalam Stadium. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Al Arabi SC wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

Kazma have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 7 league away games 9 goals have been scored. The Kazma manager has some worries about the defense as 14 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Kazma - Tadhamon 3-1. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Tadhamon zero wins, four draws and Kazma six victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
