Al Ansar form and stats

0-1-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Al Ansar so far this season. Ansar has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager Jaspert and the players.

Ansar's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 2-3 versus Shabab Al Sahel (placed 2nd).

Before that game, the home loss against Al Nejmeh with the scoreline 0-1.

The lack of attacking qualities in Ansar means that they have only scored 2 goals in 4 league home games, less than half a goal per match. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Ansar defense is not exactly impregnable. 6 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Safa form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Safa so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-3 (win-draw-lose). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Safa have lost on their last two travels.

Safa are looking to quickly end their 308 minutes long goal drought in the Premier League.

Safa lost away at AC Sporting (0-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Al Hikma wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

Safa are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 6 away games. Safa have conceded 11 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Al Ansar-Safa H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Al Ansar five wins, Safa two wins, three draws. seven of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
