Al-Bashaeer form and stats

0-1-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Professional League numbers at home for Al-Bashaeer so far this season.

An away draw last time out for Al-Bashaeer, facing Al Nasr in a game that ended 2-2. A disappointing finish for Al-Bashaeer in their match versus Al Nasr as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score. The host team have an in-form goalscorer in Hermansen, having bagged a goal in three consecutive matches.

Before that game, a fine away win at Al Wehda. A Sultan Cup game.

Al-Bashaeer aren't scoring a lot here at Ibri Youth Complex in the league, with only {2 goals} from 4 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Al-Bashaeer defense is not exactly impregnable. 7 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Al-Ittihad form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the fewest scored goals (2) in Professional League, on their Professional League travels is 0 wins, 0 draws and 4 defeats. Bitter travels for Al-Ittihad as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Al Suwaiq match.

The attacking players of Al-Ittihad have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 360 minutes.

Al-Ittihad's previous game was their home loss versus Al-Nahda (0-1). Abnormal, but true: this team has seen three consecutive league matches with the result 0-1!

A defeat, in the Sultan Cup away at Oman Club, earlier.

Considering a bet on a low-scoring game? 5 league fixtures in a row with this side have had less than three (under 2.5) goals.

In the opposite end, Al-Ittihad have conceded 7 goals in their away games.
