Al Mu'aidar form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here as Al Mu'aidar has scored 17 goals to get 15 points from 7 games. The overall stats are 5-0-2 (wins-draws-losses).Happy days for Al Mu'aidar in their previous game, a Q League match away at Al Mesaimeer that ended with a 2-1 victory. Preceding that match was the home game against Al Markhiya that was lost 1-3.
With an average of more than two goals per home game (17 in 7 games), Al Mu'aidar's attacking play is working. From these home matches, Al Mu'aidar have conceded only 6 goals.
Al Bidda form and stats
The hunting on away grounds hasn’t been very fruitful for Al Bidda, who have the fewest points (3) away in Q League, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 1-0-6 (win-draw-lose). It's looking increasingly bleak for Al Bidda who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Al Mu'aidar was the last time a defeat was avoided. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Al Bidda are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Q League home defeat versus Al Wakrah with 0-4 on the scoreboard. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Al Mesaimeer wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 7 away games, an average of less than one per game. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Al Bidda's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 20 goals in 7 travels.
