Bahla form and stats

With 1 Professional League win, 3 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Bahla are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 17 attempts.

Bahla drew their last game, 2-2 away at Sohar (placed 9th). Late drama in the game against Sohar as Bahla were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until Ditta popped out and made it level in the 90th minute.

Preceding that match was the home game against Al-Nahda that was lost 0-1.

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 Bahla have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won three, drawn two and lost two.

Bahla are traveling soon after this match as the Professional League match at Al Seeb awaits in four days.

Bahla has at home met teams with this table position (low), two times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.

Al-Ittihad form and stats

Al-Ittihad have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Professional League, after 1-4-5 (10 played).

The manager was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue. Al-Ittihad suffered a 1-4 loss to Al Seeb (placed 1st).

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Sohar that ended 0-0.

After this away game Al-Ittihad return home for a Professional League game against Al Nasr. That game is only four sleeps after this.
