Baghdad FC desperately need points today at 4:30 PM in the Stars League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Baghdad FC come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Al Kahrabaa, meanwhile, arrive struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Baghdad FC face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Al Kahrabaa have won 5 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Baghdad FC won 0–5. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Baghdad FC a slight edge, but Al Kahrabaa are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
