📰 Team News: Al-Sadd
Owing to an otherwise available group, there’s just a single fitness issue for the Al-Sadd gaffer Félix Sánchez Bas to be concerned about. Mohammed Waad (Knee injury) won’t be playing here.
⚡ Prediction
We’re inclined to think that Al-Sadd will most probably convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.
However, Al-Arabi may well struggle scoring but we can see them managing to get on the scoresheet as well here.
We’re therefore anticipating a fairly comfortable 1-3 victory for Al-Sadd at the end of the match.
