Al-Gharafa SC vs Qatar SC Prediction: Expect goals from both teams

In the 16th round of the Qatar Stars League, Qatar SC will take on Al-Gharafa at the Al-Gharafa SC stadium. Al-Gharafa is currently third placed in the league table with an unbeaten record in their last 8 league games while Qatar SC is steadily keeping up with three consecutive league victories in their last three league games. The first time they met, Al-Gharafa stole the show with a 1-3 victory. Gharafa still happens to be our favorite team for the victory here and our prediction for this game is a win or draw for Gharafa. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion.

Al-Gharafa SC (2nd)

Form in the League: WDWWW

Al-Gharafa is in sensational form and they continue to show their strength in the league. They have an unbeaten record in their last 9 league games. Their last league game against Al-Shamal ended in a 1-2 victory for Gharafa and they’ll be hoping to make it 10 games without a defeat on Saturday when they take on Qatar SC. They are now just 4 points behind league leaders Al-Duhail and they cannot afford a slip-up at this crucial time. 

They are currently 2nd placed in the league table with 9 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses from the 15 league games played. Joselu is the team's top scorer with 7 goals scored this season. 

Qatar SC (7th)

Form in the League: WWWLL

Qatar SC finally got their craft together and put their losses behind them as they’ve now secured three consecutive league victories in their last three league games. Qatar SC’s resurgence in form started with a narrow 0-1 victory over Al-Sadd last two weeks before they followed it with a 2-1 victory over Shamal and then finally topped it off with a 0-3 shocking victory against Al-Ahli Doha in their last league game. They outclassed and overpowered Al-Ahli Doha in that game. They are currently 7th in the league table with an overall league statistics of 6 wins, a draw, and 8 losses from 15 games played.
