Al-Gharraf desperately need points on Friday, Feb 19 at 5:00 PM in the Stars League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Al-Gharraf come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 4L in last 5). Erbil, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 1D 1L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Al-Gharraf head into this on the back of a defeat, while Erbil arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Al-Gharraf and Erbil have split their 2 meetings almost evenly (0W–1D–1W). Their last encounter ended in a 0–0 draw.

Verdict: Erbil's quality should tell even on the road. Al-Gharraf will push, but the visitors have too much class. Erbil to win.
