National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Busher or Al Nasr that keep their silverware dream alive.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Busher form and stats
Last season their Sultan Cup adventure ended in the 16th finals.With 2 Professional League wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Busher are certainly not brimming with confidence. Busher has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager and the players.
Busher aren't scoring a lot here at Al-Saada Stadium in the league, with only 12 goals from 13 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Busher defense is not exactly impregnable. 22 goals conceded from 13 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Al Nasr form and stats
Last season their Sultan Cup adventure ended in the quarter-finals against Al Oruba.Four points from two away games for Al Nasr, meaning one draw and one victory in the Professional League so far.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Bahla in their previous outing. The Professional League match ended in a draw 0-0. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Al Suwaiq in the Professional League.
A new game in only four days for Nasr, the Professional League home match versus Oman Club. Busy days.
It's early days yet, but Al Nasr has scored 2 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
