The Hottin & Wathba managers are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Premier League league table.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Hottin form and stats
Hottin have performed here at Al Basil Stadium this season with 8 wins from 12 Premier League matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 4 games and lost 0. With a nice streak brewing from their home games, Hottin are also looking for their fifth consecutive victory regardless of location. Two home wins in a row for Hottin bring valid hopes of a third.
Hottin are confident in defense, having played 253 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
Hottin's last game was hosting Al Sahel (placed 11th) and winning 3-0. In the game before, an away victory match versus Teshrin with a 1-0 scoreline.
Hottin have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Al Basil Stadium with 22 goals in 12 league matches. From these home matches, Hottin have conceded only 7 goals.
Wathba form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (44) in Premier League, on their Premier League travels is 7 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. The fact that Wathba have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Wathba are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.
Wathba have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper. It's been 199 minutes since they last conceded in Premier League.
Wathba had fun at their own home (Al Basil Stadium) last time out, beating Shorta 3-0. Preceding that game was the away victory against Taliya with the score of 4-0.
The travelling fans enjoy Wathba's attacking play in away games, having scored 19 goals in 12 league matches away. It's not easy to score on Wathba as they have only conceded 8 goals from these away games.
