Match description

I predict a victory for Al Zulfi (2): the visitors are 9th in the league, hosts 16th, and have a clearly superior season record. Al Zulfi have 9 wins, 9 draws and 9 losses this season, while Al Arabi have 4 wins, 4 draws and 19 losses. In the last 5 matches Al Arabi have lost all 5, scoring only 3 goals and conceding 11 (0 pts), whereas Al Zulfi in that period scored 8, conceded 6 and average 1.6 points per match. Offensively the visitors are clearly better: Al Zulfi score 1.38 goals away with 11.92 shots and 4.08 on target and a conversion rate of 12%, while Al Arabi at home have 0.54 goals, 9.69 shots, 2.38 on target and a 6% conversion, additionally the hosts fail to score in 54% of matches. xG also favors the visitors (1.45 for Al Zulfi vs 1.17 for Al Arabi) with similar xG against (1.42 vs 1.46), therefore I assess a 65% chance for an away win, 20% for a draw and 15% for a home win.
