Premier League Round 8: Top-ranked Al-Ahli win another game

Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

Premier League top team - Al-Ahli (7-0) had no problems winning another game on Wednesday. This time they crushed sixth ranked Al-Hala (3-4) in Muharraq 118-77. Undefeated Al-Ahli have an impressive seven-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains first position with 7-0 record. Al-Hala at the other side keeps the sixth place with four games lost. They share the position with Nuwaidrat. Al-Ahli are looking forward to face Al-Muharraq (#3) in Al Muharraq in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Al-Hala will play at home against Al-Najma and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Bottom-ranked Issa Town is still unable to win any game. This time they lost on the road their seventh consecutive match to ninth ranked Sitra (3-5) 123-110. Sitra moved-up to eighth place. Issa Town at the other side still closes the standings with seven games lost. Sitra will play against higher ranked Bahrain Club (#5) in Manama in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Issa Town will play on the road against Al-Ittihad (#9) in Manama and hopes to get finally their first victory.
The game in Manama supposed to be also quite interesting. Fourth ranked Al-Muharraq (5-2) played at the court of 7th ranked Nuwaidrat (3-4). Al-Muharraq smashed Nuwaidrat 85-50 on Wednesday. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Nuwaidrat. Al-Muharraq moved-up to third place. Loser Nuwaidrat dropped to the sixth position with four games lost.

Nuwaidrat will play against the league's second-placed Al-Manama (#2) and hope to secure a win.
