Al Muharraq vs Al Riffa Predictions

• Muharraq have won all of their home games in the Premier League this season.
• Al Riffa have already lost three times on the road in the Premier League.
• Both teams have scored in 3 of Muharraq’s last 6 matches.
• Both teams have scored in each of Al Riffa’s last 4 matches.

Muharraq secured a 1-0 win away at Al Shabab last time out to make it nine straight wins in all competitions, while Al Riffa claimed all 3pts in a 5-goal thriller away at Al Hala courtesy of a 3-2 final scoreline. Tuesday’s hosts sit 3pts behind the league leaders Al-Hidd but would go top of the table with a win on Tuesday, while a victory for Al Riffa would take them into third spot.

Five of the last seven meetings between these two clubs have seen both teams score and over 2.5 goals have been produced in three of their last four encounters, with Muharraq winning the last head to head 4-2 in May, so you can begin to see why we have backed a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of the hosts.

The hosts have won their last nine matches in all competitions and are unbeaten in their last eleven outings, while Al Riffa have picked up one win, one draw, and one defeat from their last three away games. Muharraq are unbeaten at home in the league, winning all four matches, while Al Riffa have lost three times on the road.

Both teams have scored in three of Muuharraq’s last six matches as well as in each of Al Riffa’s last four outings, and we have backed both teams to score in Tuesday’s clash. Muharraq score an average of 3.25 goals per home game and concede 1.00 goals while Al Riffa score an average of 2.60 goals per away game and concede 2.80 goals, and we have settled for a final scoreline of 2-1 in the hosts’ favour this Tuesday.

Over 2.5 goals have been scored in 75% of Muharraq’s home games and 50% have seen both teams score while all of Al Riffa’s away games have seen both teams score and over 2.5 goals, adding further weight to our prediction for a final score of 2-1. The hosts have scored as many goals at home as their guests have on the road (13) but Muharraq have only conceded 4-goals in their own backyard while Al Riffa have let in 14-goal away from home.

We’re confident that both teams will score in Tuesday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in Muharraq’s favour. The hosts are the form favourites and boast an excellent defensive record at home this season and, while Al Riffa do score goals on the road, the visitors have already conceded 14-goals on their travels.
