Al Shahaniya form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Premier League ended in defeat. Last season Al Shahaniya had these away match statistics: Played 11; won 3, drew 4 and lost 4. Recent form does not give Al Shahaniya much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Al Arabi will be a tough nut to crack.
