This could be an interesting match as Al Nasr have their presumed home advantage while Al-Nahda are ahead 1 point in the Professional League table.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Professional League game only four days ago. That game was also an away game, at Oman Club. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Al Nasr form and stats
Al Nasr have collected 17 points from their Professional League home games so far after 4-5-2. Two home wins in a row for Al Nasr bring valid hopes of a third.
In their previous game, the manager R. Gačanin led his Al Nasr to a defeat in the Professional League match away at Al Suwaiq. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The Salalah Youth Complex. Ahead of that match, Al Nasr won a home game hosting Bahla (2-1).
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Al Nasr have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won zero, drawn three and lost two.
The Al Nasr fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 17 goals in 11 league matches. Al Nasr have conceded 17 from these games.
Al-Nahda form and stats
The visitors are W4-D3-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Professional League.
It's the second away game in a row for Al-Nahda, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus Oman Club (placed 12th) in the Professional League last time out. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Saham.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eleven similar matches played by Al-Nahda in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Al-Nahda, two draws and five defeats.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Al-Nahda manager B. Fernandes da Costa Meneses Pereira as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Dhofar.
Al-Nahda are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 16 away goals from 11 games (in the league). Al-Nahda have conceded 16 goals in these away matches.
