Match begins: 13:15 (UTC)
Venue: Sur Sports Complex (8000 seats)

Game week two of the Professional League season and the teams have had a few days to digest the first match. Here's the Al Oruba - Dhofar preview:

Dhofar could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Professional League game only three sleeps ago.

Dhofar have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Dhofar form and stats

There were no winners in Dhofar's previous match, a Professional League home game that ended 1-1 vs Fanja (placed 8th). Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Sohar.

Dhofar has another fixture away, a Arab Club Championship game, against MC Alger in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Al Oruba won 5, Dhofar won 1 and 4 draws. 3 games with over 2,5 goals, 7 matches with two goals or less.
