Match begins: 15:50 (UTC)
Venue: Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Sports City Stadium (20000 seats)

The visiting Al Wahda side should be favourites in this visit to Al Adalh, as the away team holds a 20 point advantage from their 25 league games this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

It's quite the trip for Al Wahda when visiting Al Adalh as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.

Relegation threatens Adalh who should definitely be looking for some points here. Wahda are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

Al Adalh form and stats

With 2 Pro League wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Al Adalh are certainly not brimming with confidence. Adalh are slowly digging their own grave here at Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Sports City Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in ten attempts. The last victory here came in the Abha match.

The Al Adalh crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-4 to Al Hilal here at Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Sports City Stadium in a Pro League match.

Adalh were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Al Adalh are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 12 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 21 goals have been conceded.

Al Wahda form and stats

As the visiting team in Pro League matches, Al Wahda have produced an overall stat of 5-0-7 so far.

The attacking players of Wahda have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 270 minutes.

Two away games in a row for Al Wahda, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Al Nassr in the Pro League.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Wahda have scored 17 goals in 12 league games away. Wahda's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 20 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Adalh and Al Wahda have met before this season: Al Wahda - Al Adalh 2-0.
