El Jaish will be looking to halt their run of three consecutive losses when they take on a resurgent Al Sadd on December 14th. This clash between QSL giants will be played at the Thani bin Jassem Stadium at 6:30pm.
 
El Jaish were enjoying a run of six consecutive victories before this triple setback. They are now in third place - behind Al Rayyan and Al Sadd - and desperate to stem this downward spiral.
 
However, they will face an Al Sadd side who are coming off a morale-boosting win over Al Rayyan in the 'Qatar Classico'.
 
Al Rayyan were slight favourites going into that match, considering that they hadn’t lost any of their 11 matches till then. But Al Sadd played a compact game and produced a memorable 2-1 victory. New Al Sadd coach Jesualdo Ferreira will be looking to build on that momentum and ensure that his team doesn’t falter again.
 
El Jaish, on the other hand, are struck by injuries to key players in their back line. But they still have the formidable attacking trio of Romarinho, Hassan Abdelfattah and Sardor Rashidov who can trouble any defense line. Sabri Lamouchi will be hoping that these three can get him the goals and get his team back to winning ways.
 
As for the Wolves, a win over previously unbeatable Al Rayyan, in a high-voltage match as the 'Qatar Classico', will have gone a long way in helping them rediscover their form. They will be brimming with confidence and look to dominate the match right from the start.
 
All in all, the pre-match buzz ensures that this will be another keenly contested, end-to-end affair, which will showcase attractive football. Fans should not give this match a miss and buy their tickets at the earliest.
