Struggling Al Fateh will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Al Ahli Jeddah in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Al Fateh have the fewest points (8) at home in Pro League
- Al Ahli Jeddah is in the worst form (0-2-4)
The hosts Fateh saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Kings Cup. That game was an away game at Al Ittihad, so at least Fateh are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
These teams have little in common geographically as Al Ahli Jeddah have to travel 1200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Al Fateh form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Pro League this season. Al Fateh, who have the fewest points (8) at home in Pro League, have only managed 2 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses from their games here at Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Sports City Stadium. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Al Fateh, their manager Y. Ferrera and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
Happy days for Al Fateh in their previous game, a Kings Cup match away at Al Ittihad (after extra-time) (placed 3rd) that ended with a 2-1 victory. Before that match, a Pro League win away at Al Batin.
S. Bendebka was on the receiving end of a red card in the Al Fateh-Al Ittihad (after extra-time) match, being sent off in the 90th minute. The game was drawn at that point, but the home side still managed to pull off a 2-1 victory.
The Fateh fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 17 goals in 11 league matches. Fateh are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (27 from 11 played).
Al Ahli Jeddah form and stats
The visitors are W6-D0-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Pro League. It's looking increasingly bleak for Al Ahli Jeddah who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Al-Ain was the last time a defeat was avoided. Jeddah has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
The manager V. Milojević was unhappy after their last game, a Pro League match played at their home ground King Abdullah Sports City. Al Ahli Jeddah suffered a 1-2 loss to Al Nassr (placed 6th). A 1-3 loss hosting Dhamk before that.
The travelling fans enjoy Jeddah's attacking play in away games, having scored 20 goals in 11 league matches away. The Al Ahli Jeddah manager V. Milojević has some worries about the defense as 22 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
The most recent history between these sides is the Al Ahli Jeddah - Fateh 1-0 played earlier this season. Last ten meetings between the teams: Fateh won two, Al Ahli Jeddah won eight and zero draws. five games with over 2,5 goals, five matches with two goals or less.Al Fateh missing players
