Al Faisaly form and stats

The visitors settled for one point in their first Pro League away game of the season. During their previous season 15 away games resulted in 5 wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats.

Al Faisaly has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Al Shabab for a Pro League game that ended a draw (0-0). A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Al Feiha.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Al Faisaly playing away, we found one game. Results were 0 away wins, 1 draw and 0 home wins.

It's early days yet, but Al Faisaly has scored 0 and conceded 0 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
