The league table in Division 1 tells a story about these teams so far, with Ohod leading Al Khaleej by 17 points. Match preview to follow:
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.
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 9-9-8 (win-draw-loss) from 26 matches.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Happy days for Ohod in their previous game, a Division 1 match away at Al Shoalah (placed 10th) that ended with a 3-2 victory. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Najran.
