Umm-Salal vs Al Ahli Doha tips and predictions

Hard to pick a winner in QSL clash; stalemate beckons

Anything looks possible here. The draw looks fair. With goals being far from abundant this might not be a goal-fest and it's certainly not one to get carried away about. That said, the draw is the play from the 1X2.

These sides have not been at their best in front of goal. Umm-Salal have averaged 0.6 goals in their last 17 home starts and Al Ahli Doha have only scored once in their last 3 away games.

In previous matches between these sides 8 of the last 15 have finished on level terms.

Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out in a battle of attrition. It might not stand out but the BTTS No bet would be sensible. And if you're interested in the goal line, it's Under 1.5 that stands out here considering the prices available there.

Umm-Salal have drawn 8 of their last 20 matches on their own soil. They drew 1-1 with Al Khor last Friday. Al Ahli Doha have drawn 5 of their last 9 matches and while the prediction is for any stalemate, a scoreline of 0-0 cannot be written off here. It's not a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to sit on the fence about but the draw is food for thought. Deadlock is the pick after what will probably be a low-scoring affair.
