DWLLWD ⚖

Al-Rayyan enter this game following a 1-1 Stars League drawn match vs Al-Sadd.

The only player to score from Al-Rayyan was Aleksandar Mitrović (90'). Firmino (27') was the scorer for Al-Sadd.

Al-Rayyan have been finding it hard to keep clean sheets lately, but they’ve also done enough to convert their own chances into goals. Analysis of their previous 6 games shows that Al-Rayyan have been punished defensively in 6 of them in addition to getting on the scoresheet in 6 of those games.

Umm Salal

WWDWDL

Following on from tasting defeat last time out to Al-Shamal in Stars League action, Umm Salal and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

The only scorer from Umm Salal was Antonio Mance (75'). Omid Ebrahimi (6'), Baghdad Bounedjah (45') and Collado (59') scored for Al-Shamal.

Illustrating their penchant for eventful matches, the back of the net has been hit 20 times in the previous 6 matches in which Umm Salal have played, making it an average of 3.33 goals each fixture. Their opponents have got 8 from this total. Such a pattern might not be carried forward into this next game, however.

👥 Head to head

A study of their past head to head meetings stretching back to 02/03/2023 reveals that these fixtures have not been happy ones for Umm Salal. They’ve not managed to register any victories whatsoever while Al-Rayyan have dominated them, beating them in 67% of those ties.

There were also goals galore in those games, with 23 in total which averages out at 3.83 goals per match.

The last league encounter between these sides was Stars League match day 10 on 22/11/2025 and the score finished Umm Salal 1-2 Al-Rayyan.

💭 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Al-Rayyan can and should convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.

At the other end, Umm Salal will not find it easy to break down their defence although we do think that they will probably end up scoring here.

We reckon that it will be a controlled 3-1 victory for Al-Rayyan at the end of the match.
