Abha form and stats

Abha have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the Pro League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.

Abha's last game was hosting Al Feiha (placed 8th) and winning 2-1. Manager Michniewicz felt very clever after Hbeab scored the winning goal against Al Feiha, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 40th minute.

Heartbreak before that as Abha lost 0-1 at Al Taawon's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Abha perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Abha as a small favourite), we find 11 games. Abha has won 5 of these, drawn 3 and lost 3.

The Abha fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. Abha's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 4 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
