Duhok welcome Zakho on Friday, May 21 at 5:00 PM in a Stars League fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Duhok come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Zakho travel out of form (1W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Duhok and Zakho have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (1W–7D–2W). Their last encounter ended in Zakho won 1–0.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Duhok win or a draw looks most likely.
