The Premier League season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Al-Jazira and Wathba promises to be an interesting one.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Al-Jazira form and stats
Al-Jazira have played three Premier League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Al-Jazira with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Foutoua game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss. The Al-Jazira manager might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
Al-Jazira are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 196 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Mahmoud Anz).
Al-Jazira's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-5 versus Al Jaish (placed 7th). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Nawaeir (0-1).
Al-Jazira were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Al Sahel in only four days.
Al-Jazira aren't scoring a lot here in the league, with only 2 goals from 3 games. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Al-Jazira have let the opposition score 10 times, an average of more than three per game.
Wathba form and stats
Four points from two away games for Wathba, meaning one draw and one victory in the Premier League so far. The fact that Wathba have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.

A new game in only four days for Wathba, the Premier League home match versus Al Jaish. Busy days.

Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last three matches): Al-Jazira 0 wins, 2 draws and Wathba 1 victory. As for goals, 0 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 3 games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
