6 teams are competing to ensure staying in the Nasser Bin Hamad Football League, after the end of the 18th round matches of the second division competition in the 68th edition of the competition.
The results of the 18th round matches of the Nasser Bin Hamad Premier League competition resulted in the occurrence of 6 teams within the circle of relegation and competition for staying in the lights league, which are the teams from seventh to last.
The last -placed Manama team with 11 points is the most prominent team that competed for the direct relegation, especially after losing in front of the competition champion and the leaders Al -Muharraq team 6/1. This result has put the team in front of a big challenge, especially since the loss in the 19th round may mean farewell to the Nasser bin Hamad Premier League and direct landing, unless the team achieves victory in its next match.
While Al -Riffa, the owner of the penultimate center, with 16 points, and the tenth -placed owner with 17 points have lived their hopes of staying in the competition, after they achieved two valuable wins, the first at the expense of his neighbor, Riffa, with a score of 1/0 and the second at the expense of Al -Ahly with a score of 2/0. 2/0, I put the two teams in front of a threat to enter into the ghost spiral of landing in this tour. As the two teams will be required to achieve victory in the 19th round in order to advance towards the warm area in the overall ranking.
While the tie in which the seventh -place youth team came out with 22 points in front of the Sitra team 1/1, it was a losing result for the Maronite, which created itself in this dangerous area, especially since the team needs only one of its remaining matches to ensure its survival in the elderly league next season.
It is expected that the game of music chairs will continue at the level of the rear teams in the matches of the 19th round, which will significantly determine the features of the team and directly to the second division of the second division next season.
