To see all of our predictions, user poll & stats for Al-Ettifaq v Al-Riyadh, scroll down - plus the latest match odds.
Al-Ettifaq will play in this match following a 1-1 Professional League drawn match vs Al-Hilal.
Malcom (57') was the scorer for Al-Hilal.
Under three goals per match were scored during 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Al-Ettifaq have been participants. Regarding the goal distribution in this period, opposition teams scored an aggregate of 6 and Al-Ettifaq got themselves 6.
Since tasting defeat last time out to Al-Nassr in Professional League competition, Al-Riyadh and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
In that match, Al-Riyadh managed 33% possession and 15 attempts at goal with 8 of them on target. The scorer for Al-Riyadh was Faiz Selemani (45'). For their opponents, Al-Nassr had 19 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. Cristiano Ronaldo (56', 64') scored for Al-Nassr.
It is worth noting that Al-Riyadh have failed to get amongst the goals over their last six clashes, contributing the unsatisfactory return of only 3. In those fixtures, Al-Riyadh have also seen the overall goal tally against them equal 5. Such a trend isn’t assured to be carried forward into this game, though.
The previous league match featuring these sides was Professional League match day 11 on 24/11/2024 when it ended Al-Riyadh 0-0 Al-Ettifaq.
In that game, Al-Riyadh managed 40% possession and 7 shots at goal with 4 on target.
On the other side, Al-Ettifaq had 9 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target.
Radhi Al-Otaibi (unknown injury) and Moussa Dembélé (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t be playing for Al-Ettifaq .
In an otherwise available group, there is just the lone fitness issue for the Al-Riyadh gaffer to be concerned about. Enzo Roco (unknown injury) misses out for this game.
We believe that Al-Riyadh will have to play well to get anything against this Al-Ettifaq side who we think might well just have the edge.
We therefore see a good tussle with a 1-0 advantage for Al-Ettifaq at full-time.
Let’s see what happens.
