With their 10 point advantage in the league table, Abha fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Al Adalh.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
These teams have little in common geographically as Al Adalh have to travel 1400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Abha form and stats
Abha have played 9 Pro League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-3 (wins-draws-losses). Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Abha with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Dhamk game, 55 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Three consecutive losses here at Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Stadium is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
Abha lost their last game at Al Raed (placed 5th) after a 1-2 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Abha lost 1-4 at home to Al Wahda.
The Abha fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 9 matches. 12 goals have been conceded.
Al Adalh form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Al Adalh so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-6 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Al Adalh, who have now gone 14 games without a victory. The Abha game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.
There were no winners in Al Adalh's previous match, a Pro League home game that ended 0-0 vs Al Taawon (placed 6th). Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Dhamk.
The attacking power of Al Adalh when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 9 league matches away. The Al Adalh manager N. Beyaoui has some worries about the defense as 19 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Al Adalh - Abha 2-1. As for the last seven games between these two teams, there's four Abha victories, zero draws and three Al Adalh wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
