Match begins: 18:30 (UTC)
Venue: Al Majma'ah Sports City Stadium

This fixture stars two participants living in the cellar of the Pro League, Al Feiha holding 12th spot and Al Khaleej lying 15th. A nice opportunity for one of the contenders to better their position.

Insights:
  • Al Feiha is in the worst form (0-2-4)
  • Al Khaleej have the fewest points from losing position (0) in Pro League

Al Khaleej have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It's no vacation for neither Feiha nor Al Khaleej as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
