Al-Kholood
LWWLWL
Al-Kholood will be looking for an improved result here following a 4-3 Professional League losing effort in their last game against Al-Ittihad.
In that match, Al-Kholood had 37% possession and 23 attempts at goal with 7 on target. The scorer for Al-Kholood was William Troost-Ekong (15'). On the other side, Al-Ittihad got 14 shots on goal with 7 of them on target. Abdulrahman Al Obud (35'), Steven Bergwijn (45', 63') and Hassan Kadesh (47') scored for Al-Ittihad.
It’s been a rare occasion in recent games that Al-Kholood have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Al-Kholood have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 11 goals along the way. We will have to see if that trend will end up being continued on in this game.

Team News: Al-Riyadh
Thanks to a mainly full-strength squad, there is only the one fitness worry for the Al-Riyadh manager to be concerned with. Enzo Roco (unknown injury) won’t be in action.

In our view, Al-Riyadh and Al-Kholood should both be able to score here although it’s hard to pick a clear winner.
It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. Our tip is therefore for a very even match with a 1-1 score draw after 90 minutes.
