The 2019-20 season QNB Stars League’s Week 4 matches will be played on Thursday, 19th September, Friday, 20th September, and Saturday, 21st September. Two games will be played on each day.

The fixtures are Al Arabi vs Al Shahania (16:50, Al Janoub Stadium) and Al Gharafa vs Al Ahli (19:00, Al Sadd Stadium) on Thursday, Al Sadd vs Umm Salal (16:50, Al Janoub Stadium) and Al Sailiya vs Qatar SC (19:00, Al Sadd Stadium) on Friday, and Al Rayyan vs Al Khor (16:50, Al Janoub Stadium) and Al Wakrah vs Al Duhail (19:00, Al Sadd Stadium) on Saturday.

The game between in-form teams Al Gharafa and Al Ahli will be the highlight of fixtures.

Al Gharafa are second in the standings and Al Ahli fourth. They both had won in the last round and sparks are expected to fly when they face off.

Holders Al Sadd, whose match against Al Sailiya in Week 3 was postponed to 24th September due to the former’s AFC Champions League second-leg quarterfinal against Saudi Arabia’s Al Nassr, will be in action against Umm Salal, placed 10th.

Al Sadd, currently placed third, are on a high after reaching the semifinals of Asian competition, defeating Al Nassr 4-3 on aggregate after The Wolves won the second-leg quarterfinal by a 3-1 margin in Doha on 16th September. The Qatari champions had lost the first leg 1-2 in Riyadh on 26th August.

Al Duhail cannot afford to drop more points as they face high-flying Al Wakrah. The Red Knights had slipped two positions to sixth following their 1-1 draw with Al Rayyan last week.

On the other hand, Al Wakrah had registered their second victory, 2-0 against Al Shahania in Week 3. They are now fifth in the table.

Al Arabi will look to keep their position on top of the table when they play bottom side Al Shahania.

Qatar SC too will look to open their account as they meet Al Sailiya, while Al Khor run into Al Rayyan in other action.

Qatar SC and Al Shahania are the only sides yet to collect a point.

The air-conditioned Al Janoub and Al Sadd Stadiums will continue to host the matches.
