Derby between the second (15-6-1) and the first (16-4-2) of last year's championship in which Ryan lost the title as he finished just one point behind Duhail, having lost many points (five draws) by small and medium-sized groups such as Um Salal and Sahaniya (relegated). In the top four derbies (including Al Sadd) it was undefeated (3-1-0) while Duhail (1-1-2) had lost to both Ryan and Al Sadd. In the games between them we had a draw and a victory for Ryan. The only defeat that Ryan made last year was from the middle Garafa.
The three aforementioned teams will also claim this year's title with Al Sadd clearly better and by far the most likely. Now, where does this great Duchess favorite come from is a mystery. Already, in four games (2-0-2), it has suffered two defeats (From Al Sadd and Wakra), while Ryan has done somewhat better (2-1-1). In any case, in such a derby, the uniforms and the prehistories go for a walk, therefore we bet on the great performance!
