Al-Dhafra are fourteenth on the same points tally, also three defeats, but with even leaner numbers up front: 1 goal scored and 7 conceded, a 1-3 at home and two away losses without scoring, 0-4 between them. The league averages 3.57 goals per game, a high tempo that so far has mostly shown up in the goals these two have conceded. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off.
