Al-Oruba Club Stadium: Blow the trumpet for a football party when Al Orubah host Al Khaleej. Read up on the fixture here!

Insights:
  • Al Khaleej have the most scored goals (44) 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 11-12-8 (win-draw-loss) from 31 matches.

Al Khaleej have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

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.
