Sur form and stats

Sur's struggle is real here with only 8 points collected from 11 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly 1-5-5. It's trouble wherever Sur are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now. They really need to get back to winning ways. The Sur manager might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

The Sur crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Al-Rustaq here in a Professional League match. Heartbreak before that as Sur lost 1-3 at Oman Club's place.

Sur aren't scoring a lot here with only 8 goals from 11 games. 16 goals have been conceded.

Mjees form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Mjees so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-9 (win-draw-lose). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Mjees, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Al-Shabab Club game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on the Mjees manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Mjees delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Muscat in their previous match; a Professional League game. A 0-1 defeat away at Al-Rustaq before that.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Mjees's away games this season with only 6 goals from 13 matches. In the opposite end, Mjees have conceded 23 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Mjees - Sur 1-0 entered in the official records. Last nine meetings between the teams: Sur won 4, Mjees won 5 and 0 draws. 5 games with over 2,5 goals, 4 matches with two goals or less.
