Aluminium Arak's Struggle for Form: A Persian Gulf Pro League Analysis of Recent Performances and Head-to-Head Statistics Against Malavan Ahead of Their Upcoming Match

Aluminium Arak's recent form has been poor, with a winless streak of five matches across all competitions, comprising two draws and three losses. They have only managed to score two goals while conceding four, highlighting significant weaknesses in both attack and defence. Their performance in the Persian Gulf Pro League has been particularly challenging. In their last league match, they lost 1-0 away to the strong team, Persepolis. Prior to that, they suffered a 1-0 defeat at home against Sepahan, losing their last two home games and failing to capitalize on their home advantage. A key issue for Aluminium Arak is their inefficient attack. They average just 0.57 goals per league game this season, placing them among the lower-scoring teams in the league. They struggle to pose a consistent scoring threat even against teams with weaker defences. While Aluminium Arak's home form has been relatively stable, their attack remains weak. Their record at home in the last ten matches is three wins, five draws, and two losses. They have scored few goals at home this season (4), but their defensive record is better (2 goals conceded). Malavan's away form is average, with one win, three draws, and one loss in their last ten away matches. They have scored and conceded a total of two goals, indicating a balanced attack and defence. In their six previous competitive encounters, Aluminium Arak has one win, four draws, and one loss, with a win rate of approximately 16.7%. The most recent two matches ended in draws (including a 1-1 draw in May 2025 and a 1-1 draw in December 2024), suggesting the teams are closely matched and that their recent encounters have often resulted in low-scoring draws.
