Umm Salal face Al Sailiya in Week 4 of the 2022-2023 season QNB Stars League. The kick-off is at 17:20 at the Al Janoub Stadium on Wednesday, 24th August, 2022.
It is a clash between two wounded sides eager to bounce back with a win and strengthen their position on the standings table.
Umm Salal are fighting to restore order after their loss against Al Wakrah in the third round, by registering their first win of the season before it gets too late.
Likewise, Al Sailiya are keen on shrugging off their defeat to Qatar SC in the previous round.
While Umm Salal go into this round with one point from a draw, earned against reigning champions Al Sadd, their opponents Al Sailiya have three points with one win which they scored against Al Shamal.
Umm Salal, under coach Wesam Rizik, will try to take advantage of Al Sailiya’s weak links. The return of Abdullah Khafifi from suspension should bolster them.
Al Sailiya, coached by Sami Trabelsi, will look to take advantage of Umm Salal’s vulnerability and improve their ranking.
The match is expected to be strong and even, given that match-ups between them always throw up excitement.
