Al Nahdha have fought quite a few losing battles for points this league season. Will they get some points when Al Khaleej stop by Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium?
- Al Nahdha have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Al Khaleej have the most scored goals (37) in Division 1
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Al Khaleej have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 13-12-8 (win-draw-loss) from 33 matches.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
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.
