The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Al Jeel are in the 13th position while the guesting Al Najoom worry at 19th.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Al Jeel form and stats
When playing at home in the Division 1, Al Jeel have managed 4 wins, 5 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 13 games.
The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Al Jabalain in the Division 1 last time out and are looking for a win here. Prior to that, an away loss at Al-Ain.
The Al Jeel fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 13 matches. 14 goals have been conceded.
Al Najoom form and stats
There's been little loot from Al Najoom's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 12 away games in the Division 1. Al Najoom, who have the most conceded goals (30) away in Division 1, only have 1 win to counter their 8 defeats and 3 draws.
Al Najoom won their last game, 1-0 versus Al Ta'ee played at home. A 1-3 loss hosting Al Batin before that.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Al Najoom have scored 13 goals in 12 league games away. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Al Najoom's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 30 goals in 12 travels.
