Match description
Al Ansar is the favorite based on season-long indicators: they have 38 goals scored versus Safa’s 19, and at home they win 70% of matches, scoring an average of 1.9 goals and conceding 0.7 per game. Quality of chances is supported by xG — hosts register 1.86 xG at home versus 0.98 xG for the visitors on the road, and Al Ansar average 6 shots on target and 13 shots overall per match compared to Safa’s 3 on target and 5.75 shots. Defensively the hosts perform better: 60% of home games are clean sheets, while Safa have 0% clean sheets away and concede 1.0 goal on average on the road. Note form: Al Ansar have won 2 of their last 5 (6 goals in those 5), while Safa have 4 wins in 5 and have conceded only 2 goals in that period, which gives the visitors momentum but does not offset the home advantage. Additionally, the hosts have not had a match without scoring at home (0% games without a goal), whereas Safa failed to score in 50% of away games, so I forecast an Al Ansar victory.
