Al Duhail will face Al Arabi in Week 21 of the 2024-2025 season Ooredoo Stars League at Abdullah Bin Khalifa Stadium of Al Duhail club on Friday, April 11, 2025. The kick-off is at 6.30pm.

Al Duhail are in second place in the standings with 44 points, having slipped down from being the leaders following their previous-round 0-4 loss to Al Shamal and Al Sadd’s 2-1 victory over Al Rayyan in Qatar Clasico.

Al Arabi are in ninth place with 23 points, having lost 1-3 to Al Gharafa in their previous round.

Both Al Duhail and Al Arabi will work to achieve their goals in this match. Al Duhail are aiming to regain the winning touch and will also be having an eye on the result of Al Sadd vs Al Khor match, while Al Arabi will be looking to finish the season in the best possible position.

Al Duhail’s French coach Chirstophe Galtier will be tasked with restoring confidence in his players and making up for the recent loss, given the decline of many of their attacking players, as well as correcting errors in defence.

Meanwhile, Al Arabi are looking to quickly return to winning ways against Al Duhail. The Dream Team are suffering from significant absences due to injuries, most notably Jassim Jaber and Ahmed Fathy, in addition to Tunisian professional Youssef Msakni.

Italian Marco Verratti will, however, be back in the side, after having missed the last match due to suspension for accumulated yellow cards.
