Al-Shahania

LLLLLW

Al-Shahania will want to continue from where they left off last time out with a 3-0 Stars League victory vs Al-Gharafa.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times that Al-Shahania have kept a clean sheet. It will be a concern for them that Al-Shahania have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, letting in 14 goals during that time. That aside, we must now wait to see if that pattern might continue on in this upcoming game.

Al-Duhail

WDLWLW

Al-Duhail will come into the meeting following a 1-0 Stars League win with the eclipse of Qatar SC in their last match.

The only name on the scoresheet from Al-Duhail was Ismaeel Mohammad (55').

Al-Duhail have attacked well in their most recent fixtures, having scored 14 times in their last 6 matches. While their manager Christophe Galtier will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Al-Duhail have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 5 of those same matches.

↔️ Head to head

Inspecting their prior head to head meetings going back to 08/11/2018 shows that Al-Shahania have won 1 of these & Al-Duhail 4, with the tally of drawn games standing at 1.

An aggregate of 19 goals were shared by the two clubs in these games, with 6 of them from The Oryxes and 13 netted by The Red Knights. That is an average goals per game value of 3.17.

ℹ️ Team News: Al-Duhail

Al-Duhail boss Christophe Galtier has to currently contend with reduced team options. Salah Zakaria (surgery), Tuta (unknown injury) and Abdou Diallo (unknown injury) can’t be considered. Arthur Desmas will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

🧠 Prediction

It looks to us that this Al-Duhail have it within them to see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

At the same time, Al-Shahania could well struggle finding the net themselves but we think it’s quite likely that they will be scoring here as well.

We’re tipping a controlled 1-3 winning margin for Al-Duhail at the end of the match.
