Al-Rayyan's impressive five-game unbeaten streak in the league came to an abrupt end with a disappointing 3-0 defeat against Al-Gharafa in their latest league outing. The defeat showcased their struggles as they were outclassed by their opponents. However, Al-Rayyan remains determined to bounce back and secure a positive result as they gear up to face Al-Duhail on Sunday.

Sitting in 4th place in the league table, Al-Rayyan has showcased exceptional form this season, boasting eleven victories, a draw, and five losses from the 17 matches played. This consistency underscores their status as strong contenders in the league, highlighting their unwavering determination to succeed.

In the midst of a recent downturn, Al-Duhail endured a winless streak in their last nine league games. However, they broke the streak with a victory against Al-Shamal in their most recent league outing, securing a 3-1 win. Notably, Michael Olunga contributed significantly to the win with a brace in that match for Duhail.

As defending champions currently positioned 6th in the league table, they hold an overall record of six wins, four draws, and seven losses from 17 games played. With their upcoming match against Al-Rayan on Sunday, nothing less than a victory is expected from them.

Al-Duhail has emerged victorious in 8 of their last 9 encounters with one game ending in a draw.

Al-Rayyan has faced eight consecutive winless encounters against Duhail, and considering Duhail's current impressive form, Al-Rayyan might just have their opportunity to change the dynamics of the game given Duhail's current bad run of form. The game result could go either way but we are confident of the goal scoring opportunities in the game and we can bank on a total over 2.5 goals in this encounter.
