Match description

Al Khaleej appears a slight favorite due to superior defense and efficiency: visitors concede an average of 1.5 goals away versus 2.0 conceded by Al Sharjah at home. In the last 5 matches Al Sharjah scored only 3 and conceded 9, while Al Khaleej scored 4 and conceded 8, indicating a somewhat more solid defensive form from the visitors. Hosts have higher possession (55% vs 45%) and higher average xG at home (1.30 vs 1.21), but this does not translate into goals (Al Sharjah 1.17 goals per home match) and their defense underperforms relative to xG (specifically 2.0 conceded vs xG against 1.32). Additionally, Al Khaleej has higher conversion rate (13% vs hosts' 11%), more clean sheets away (25% vs 8%) and less often finish goalless (FTS 33% vs 42%), therefore I rate the visitors' chances higher.
