Al-Gharafa vs Al-Wakrah: Prediction, Head-to-Head, Odds & Stats (Fri, 21 Nov '25)

Prepare yourself for a side-splitting saga as Al-Gharafa and Al-Wakrah square off in what promises to be an epic showdown in the Stars League on a friendly Friday, 21st November '25, at local time. This can't-miss face-off isn't just about winning, but about who can juggle statistics better without bursting into a laughter-too-soon celebration.

These two teams have played a thrilling tango in their last three duels, each team strutting their stuff with one victory while also sharing in the harmonious dance of a draw. Their last magnificent match-up on 11th April '25 ended in a nail-biting tie, leaving fans pondering if a coin flip would have decided it better.

Al-Gharafa enters this comedic arena riding high on a 2-1 victory over Qatar SC, undoubtedly bringing a skip in their step and a goal in their pocket. On the flip side, Al-Wakrah comes armed not with just shin guards, but a 2-2 draw against Al-Ahli Doha. With Al-Gharafa perched confidently in the top league spot and Al-Wakrah lounging leisurely in 5th, there's a certain cat-mouse camaraderie in the air.

Player antics are the name of the game: Y. Brahimi is Al-Gharafa’s pocket dynamo with a foursome of goals that has spectators wondering if he scores in his sleep, while Al-Wakrah's A. Zouhzouh is the wizard of assists, blessing his team with assists on more than one occasion—okay, fine, precisely two.

Al-Gharafa’s top triple threat: Yacine Brahimi with a dizzying 8.17 rating who presumably gets fan mail from defenders, Seydou Sano casually holding a 7.68, and the ever-reliable Rayyan Ahmed Al Ali at 7.1.

Al-Wakrah’s top-three musketeers: Amine Zouhzouh at a stout 7.5, Hamdy Fathy with a balanced 7.1, and good ol’ reliable Mohammed Al Bakri at an even seven.

Possession stats reveal an artfully split decision; Al-Gharafa holds onto the ball with a 52.22% grip, as if it contained the secret to the universe, while Al-Wakrah trails at 50.78%, clearly plotting world domination. When it comes to corner shops or rather corners during matches, Al-Gharafa politely requests 4.67 while Al-Wakrah demands a hefty 5.78, refereeing wit not often seen on the pitch.

Discipline? It's a gentleman's game, they say! Al-Gharafa delicately gathers 27 yellows and 2 reds, perhaps in a rainbow collection challenge, while Al-Wakrah amasses 31 yellows with the same scarlet duo. Both teams seem utterly selfless, gifting away 4 penalty goals to opponents, showing unrivaled generosity.

After studying this comically well-balanced data, I hereby declare the statisticians champions, but if I must choose a winner, Al-Gharafa might claim this footballing funny farm, if the stats have anything to chirp about.
