The goal timing numbers for both sides point in the same direction: Aluminium Arak score 34% of their goals in the 76-90 minute period, and Kheybar Khorramabad concede 33% in the same period — this match is likely to be quiet until the final 20 minutes before exploding. The home side's recent form is unbeaten in 5 (won 2, drawn 3), but Kheybar Khorramabad have also drawn 2 in a row, and their last away match was a narrow 2-3 loss. In the last 6 meetings, only 2 ended with a margin greater than 1 goal (1-3 and 0-1), so this match has a high chance of being closely contested. The first thing to watch after kickoff is how tightly Kheybar Khorramabad's defense holds its position, because if they allow Aluminium Arak to comfortably possess the ball in the final third, they may face heavy pressure late in the game.
