It's early days in the Premier League and both Al Rayyan and Al Wakrah are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
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.
Al Rayyan form and stats
Rayyan travelled for their previous game, a trip to Al Arabi that ended 1-1. Preceding that match was the home game against Al Gharafa that was lost 0-2.
Al Wakrah form and stats
Al Wakrah have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Premier League were 2 victories, 3 draws and 6 defeats from 11 fixtures.
219 minutes! That's how long the Al Wakrah goalkeeper Saoud Mubarak Al Khater and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Al Wakrah might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Al Duhail proved too strong as Al Wakrah slumped to a 1-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Saoud Bin Abdulrahman Stadium (Al-Wakrah Stadium). Preceding that game was the away victory against Al Khor with the score of 2-1.
Leading 3-1 was not enough for Wakrah in their fight with Al Duhail last time out. Happy faces soon turned sour as mistakes flourished in what ended up a 1-3 loss. Imagine losing a game despite one player scoring three goals? That's the story of Omar Ali in the match against Al Duhail.
It's early days yet, but Al Wakrah has scored 1 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: six - zero - four (Rayyan wins - draws - Al Wakrah wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.Top Goalscorers
