Al-Thuqbah form and stats

Three Division 1 home games done for Al-Thuqbah, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points, but a victory now would be sweet for Al-Thuqbah.

A good away victory last time out for Al-Thuqbah, who won 5-2 against Hottain (placed 18th). The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Al Khaleej.

This is expected to be a close game, with Al-Thuqbah perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Al-Thuqbah as a small favourite), we find one game. Al-Thuqbah has won 0 of these, drawn 1 and lost 0.

Al-Thuqbah have scored 1 goal here in 3 league matches, a depressing statistic. Defensively Al-Thuqbah have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (1 in 3 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Al Batin form and stats

Things could have gone better for Al Batin in their Division 1 away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

The supporters enjoyed Al Batin's previous game versus Al Najoom (placed 15th), a Division 1 4-1 win played at home. Before that, Al Batin travelled to Al Jabalain and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found six similar matches played by Al Batin in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Al Batin, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
