Al Duhail face Al Sailiya in Week 7 of the 2022-2023 season QNB Stars League. The kick-off is at 18:05 at the Al Duhail Stadium on Tuesday, 13th September, 2022.
Both teams are going into the match in contrasting fashion. While Al Duhail convincingly defeated Qatar SC 3-0, Al Sailiya lost to leaders Al Arabi by a 1-5 margin in Week 6.
The victory saw Al Duhail, coached by former Argentinian great Hernan Crespo, climb one place to second in the table with 13 points (four victories, one draw and a defeat). The Red Knights have a goal difference of +6 (12 goals for and six against).
Al Sailiya badly need points at this stage before the league takes a long break after the seventh round. The Peregrines have only one victory this season so far to show for their efforts.
Al Sailiya, under the tutelage of Tunisian Sami Trabelsi, are in the 11th place with three points (one win and five defeats) and have a goal difference of -5 (four goals for and nine against).
Al Sailiya will certainly want to avoid the situation they were in last season when they retained their place in the QNB Stars League by winning the Relegation Play-Off.
Both teams have standout players in their ranks.
