Pro League: We're expecting an interesting and vital match starring Al Khaleej and Al Raed at Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium. They both need to win this!

Insights:
  • Al Khaleej have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
  • Al Raed have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Al Raed have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Al Khaleej form and stats

With 2 Pro League wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats from their home games, Al Khaleej are certainly not brimming with confidence. When Al Khaleej hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Al Wahda, Al Adalh, Al Khaleej, Al Batin and Al Feiha), they have won 2 of 4 matches!

Khaleej's previous game was also played at home, ending 3-2 versus Al Wahda (placed 13th). The home side are looking to build on that result.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Al Taawon and winning 1-0.

Al Khaleej have scored {6 league goals} here from 7 matches, not a lot. Khaleej have conceded 9 in these home matches.

Al Raed form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Pro League travels is 3 wins, 0 draws and 3 defeats. Al Raed love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.

Raed's previous game was their home loss versus Al Feiha (2-4). As you can tell from the result, the match against Al Feiha was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Al Hilal.

Both teams to score? This side's most recent statistics suggest that, having played 5 league matches in a row with one or more goals from each team.

The visiting Al Raed have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 7 goals from 6 games. As opposed to that, Al Raed have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last eight matches): Khaleej four wins, one draw and Al Raed three victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
