Al Draih form and stats

There's been little loot from Al Draih's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 15 away games in the Division 1. Al Draih only have 3 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 4 draws. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Al Draih have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Hajer game.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Draih, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-3 versus Al Jabalain (placed 2nd).

Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Al-Kawkab.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Al Draih as they have only managed to score 13 times from 15 away games in the league. Draih's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 26 goals from these trips.
