It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Muscat, who are travelling more than 1000 kilometers to play this game.
Al Nasr form and stats
The story so far in the Professional League for Al Nasr at their home stadium (Al-Saada Stadium) is 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat.
The Nasr goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 180 minutes without conceding a goal in the Professional League.
The home team returns to Al-Saada Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with Al-Rustaq (placed 7th) on their last time out; the Professional League game ended 0-0.
The Nasr fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. On the other hand, Nasr have conceded 4 goals.
Muscat form and stats
No Professional League points yet away for Muscat, from their first 3 matches. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Muscat's last three away games as they have all been lost.
The attacking players of Muscat have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 203 minutes.
The manager was unhappy after their last game, a Professional League match played at their home ground Sultan Qaboos Sport Complex. Muscat suffered a 0-4 loss to Al Seeb (placed 1st). Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Al-Rustaq.
Muscat lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Muscat's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. Muscat have conceded 5 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Nasr won three games, five matches ended with a draw and Muscat has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / fiveAl Nasr missing players
