Al Nasr and Sohar have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Professional League.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
It's quite the trip for Sohar when visiting Nasr as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.
Al Nasr form and stats
When playing at home in the Professional League, Al Nasr have managed 4 wins, 6 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 12 games.
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Al-Nahda that ended 2-2.
The manager R. Gačanin will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Dhofar in only four days.
Al Nasr have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Al-Saada Stadium with 19 goals in 12 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 19 goals have been conceded.
Sohar form and stats
Playing away, Sohar have won 5 games, drawn 0 and suffered 7 defeats in the Professional League this season.
Y. Abdulkarim was the last player to score for the away team. Sohar haven't scored a league goal in the last 400 minutes.
Sohar's last game was the home draw against Saham (0-0). Prior to that match, the Sohar manager faced defeat when travelling to Muscat and losing 0-3.

Sohar find the net regularly in their away games. 16 goals from 12 away fixtures in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Sohar have seen the ball go into their own net 17 times on the road.
