Al-Taawoun
WLDWDL ⚖
Al-Taawoun will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 2-0 Professional League losing effort in their last game against Al-Hilal.
In that game, Al-Taawoun had 46% possession and 6 attempts on goal with 2 on target. At the other end, Al-Hilal Saudi had 12 attempts at goal with 7 of them on target. Aleksandar Mitrović (15') and Sergej Milinković-Savić (62') scored for Al-Hilal.
Under three goals per game were recorded in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Al-Taawoun have been involved. With regard to the goal weighting from that period, opposition teams scored an aggregate of 6 and Al-Taawoun managed a tally of 7. Previous results aside, it remains to be seen whether that trend will be maintained in this game.

Team News: Al-Taawoun
There aren’t many selection issues, with just the lone fitness concern for the Al-Taawoun gaffer to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group. Mohammed Mahzari (unknown injury) is out of contention.

Prediction
In our view, Al-Taawoun can and should be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
However, Al-Kholood may well struggle to get shooting opportunities but we do fancy them getting the chances to score, too.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a controlled 3-1 victory for Al-Taawoun at the conclusion of the game.
