Umm Salal struggled in their season opener against Al-Rayyan, ultimately falling and losing the game by 2-goal margin. Umm Salal lost focus in the dying minutes of that game and conceded two goals in the dying minutes. However, they regrouped and came back stronger in their second league game against Al-Shamal where they won with a 3-2 scoreline. Can they replicate this success against Al-Duhail?

A closer look at their last 20 encounters shows that Duhail leads in their H2H stats with 13 wins, while Umm Salal has 5 wins and 2 draws.

Duhail is in sensational form as we can see from their last two league games, scoring a total of 10 goals in 2 league games is no Salal feat but only a testament to their incredible attacking force. Umm Salal is a very tough team to play against and If you take a closer analysis of their last 2 meetings we see that Umm Salal won both. However, we see a different dynamic in this game and it’s only right that we go with the best choice which is a Duhail win. Duhail’s current average goal record in the league is 5 goals per game and we can expect a minimum of two goals from them here and a total of over 2.5 goals.
