18:45 kick-off at Al Sadd Stadium
Al Sadd face Al Duhail in Week 14 of the 2020-21 season QNB Stars League. The kick-off is at 18:45 at the Al Sadd Stadium on Tuesday, 12th January, 2021.
There is no doubt that this will be one humdinger of a game which may decide both teams’ prospects of winning the championship though Al Sadd are in a better position with 35 points at the top of the table, eight points more than second-placed Al Duhail.
Al Sadd extended their marauding run, beating Al Sailiya by eight goals that brooked no response in Week 13. The individual brilliance of Algerian striker Baghdad Bounedjah stood out as he scored four goals in The Wolves’ victory.
Another big advantage for Al Sadd is that they are the only side with an unbeaten record in this season’s tournament. Xavi Hernandez’s men have recorded 11 victories, the most by any team, and they drew the other two fixtures. They have a goal difference of +41 (50 goals for and nine against).
Al Duhail did not lag behind in the last round as The Red Knights beat Al Wakrah 8-1, with Paulo Edmilson Junior contributing four goals to the win.
Sabri Lamouchi’s wards are gradually gaining the lost ground. They have nine wins under their belt, while they lost four matches. Their goal difference is +18 (35 goals for and 17 against).
Al Sadd had beaten Al Duhail 3-1 in the first leg of 2020-21 season QNB Stars League.
