The season is still fairly new and the Pro League table has to be read with caution. So far Al Shabab find themselves in 2nd position and Dhamk are placed 16th.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
These teams have little in common geographically as Dhamk have to travel 1900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
