Al-Ittihad DWLDWL ⚖

In that match, Al-Ittihad managed 69% possession and 9 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Al-Ahli Saudi had 9 attempts at goal with 5 on target. Riyad Mahrez (55') was the scorer for Al-Ahli Saudi.

Over their past six games, the sum total of 21 goals have flown in for both teams combined (at an average of 3.5 goals per game) with 12 of them coming from Al-Ittihad. That sort of trend isn’t assured to be sustained here, of course.
Al-Riyadh LLLWDD

In that match, Al-Riyadh had 34% possession and 7 shots at goal with 1 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Al-Riyadh was González (24'). At the other end, Damac had 14 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. Valentin Vada (85') was the scorer for Damac.
Al-Riyadh have seen success in front of goal in the lead-up to this encounter, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Al-Riyadh have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 5 of those same games.
👥 Head to head
The previous league encounter featuring these clubs was Professional League match day 25 on 13/03/2025 which ended up with the score at Al-Ittihad 2-1 Al-Riyadh.
That time, Al-Ittihad had 58% possession and 10 shots at goal with 5 on target. The scorers were Moussa Diaby (55') and Saleh Al Shehri (101').
At the other end, Al-Riyadh got 12 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. Ibrahim Bayesh (81') scored.
🧠 Prediction
We’re thinking that Al-Ittihad will most probably get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.
However, Al-Riyadh could well struggle finding the net themselves but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be getting the chances to score, too.
We reckon that it will be a fairly comfortable 3-1 win for Al-Ittihad after 90 minutes.
