Al Shamal vs Al-Duhail Prediction: Al Duhail to finish group round with a win

On October 15th, the fifth and final round of the Qatar Stars League Cup Group match will take place between Al Shamal and Al-Duhail. Both teams will confidently enter this encounter after having won their previous match with relative ease. If Al-Duhail wins this match, they will finish on top of the Group B table, while Al Shamal hopes a win will allow them to advance to the qualification phase. We give an exclusive detail about the match in the following paragraphs.

Al Shamal - hopeful to end Al-Duhail’s dominance

After playing four matches in Group B of the Stars League Cup, Al Shamal only has four points to show for their efforts, thanks to a single victory, one draw, and two losses. Although they are now in fifth place in the Group B standings, three points ahead of Al Markhiya, they are currently tied with Al Rayyan for fourth place with four points each. They scored five goals in their first four matches, with two coming against Al Rayyan and Al Markhiya. However, in the host's last four games, they have allowed seven goals to be scored against them. They will go into this match hoping for a miraculous performance, even though all signs indicate the possibility that they will be defeated in this encounter. Although we won't rule out the possibility that Al Shamal will put in a solid effort to prevent Al Duhail from getting a win this time, we do not see the necessary quality in terms of players or the fighting spirit needed to stop Al-Duhail’s attack. Despite this, we won't rule out the possibility that Al Shamal will put in a strong effort. It is anticipated that the home squad will have another tough time in this match.

Al-Duhail - Duhail’s attack won’t stop scoring

In the final round of the Group stage of the 2022/2023 Qatar Stars League Cup, Michael Olunga will again take the helm of Duhail as the team's leader. The Kenyan professional footballer has been having the best form of his career so far this season, as evidenced by the fact that he scored three goals in their opening Group B match against Al Markhiya and also set up Madjer in that exact match. Al-Duhail has a record of fifteen goals scored and only six goals allowed through their first four matches. We anticipate that their potent offense will again be the difference in this match, even though their defense has been shaky as of late, except in their most recent encounter, in which they won 3-0 without allowing any opponents to score on them. It is anticipated that the away team will prevail and demonstrate their recent form by tallying several goals in this encounter.
