There is optimism in Shabab Alsamu so far this season, with their 4th spot in the West Bank League table and hosting Thagafi Tulkarm (who are sitting at 6th).
- Shabab Alsamu have the most conceded goals (8) at home in West Bank League
- Thagafi Tulkarm have the fewest scored goals in the second half (2) in West Bank 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!
Shabab Alsamu form and stats
Shabab Alsamu have played three West Bank League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
Shabab Alsamu travelled for their previous game, a trip to Markez Balata that ended 1-1.
Preceding that match was the home game against Hilal Al-Quds that was lost 2-3.With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (7 in 3 games), Shabab Alsamu's attacking play is working. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Shabab having conceded 8 goals here at Dora International Stadium so far.
Thagafi Tulkarm form and stats
The West Bank League season is young and Thagafi Tulkarm have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far.
Thagafi have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper. It's been 270 minutes since they last conceded in West Bank League.
Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Shabab Al Am'ari in their previous game.
Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Shabab Al-Dhahiriya that ended 0-0.A quick return to home after this game, as Thagafi Tulkarm are hosting Hilal Al-Quds in the West Bank League only four days away.
Goals are few and far between in Thagafi Tulkarm's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. Thagafi's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 5 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the prior seven meetings between these two squads are: three wins for Shabab, three draws and one win for Thagafi Tulkarm. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: three games.Shabab Alsamu missing players
