Important duel in the bottom section of the Premier League, with both Al Sailiya and Al Markhiya suffering more distress than pleasure. This fixture is a typical "six-pointer" with the host team at 12th and the guests in 9th position.
- Al Sailiya is in the worst form (0-1-5)
- Al Markhiya have won significantly more corners away than at home.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
This looks to be an intriguing game with lots of spark and excitement as both squads are well renewed since they last played a game. Game on!
