Abha form and stats

4 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Abha have to build on here at Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Stadium in the Pro League. Abha has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager A. Chebbi and the players. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Abha, their manager A. Chebbi and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The Abha fans got no joy from their last match, a Pro League game also here at Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Stadium: A 1-2 defeat against Al Hilal (placed 1st). Before that game, the home loss against Al Faisaly with the scoreline 0-1.

A decent goal production from Abha in their home games so far, with 12 goals from 8 league matches. On the other hand, Abha have conceded 8 goals.
