Al-Fayha host Al Riyadh in the Saudi league, with the home side having just ended their last match in a 0-0 draw, while the visitors went away and won 2-0 in their last outing. The two teams therefore come into this in very different moods, yet they are separated by just one point in the table. Al-Fayha still have not found a win in 3 straight matches, but they did not lose their most recent one either. The home side's attack keeps scoring, but the defence is a clear problem, especially late in games where they concede far more than at other times. As for Al Riyadh, they have picked up wins in 2 of their last 5, and although they were thrashed in one of them, their defence has tightened up over the last two matches to the point of not conceding at all. This game should see the home side with more of the ball and gradually opening up against a visiting team that is comfortable sitting deep and waiting to counter. If Al-Fayha score first, the momentum will tilt even further toward the hosts, because Al Riyadh do not have an attack that can keep sustained pressure on their opponent. But if it drags on into the closing stages, the risk of the home side being caught on the counter is very real.
