Al Ettifaq and Al Khaleej meet often and the games always seem to end with goals. The last meeting, when Al-Khaleej hosted and lost heavily 0-5, is still fresh in both teams' minds. This time it is different because Al Ettifaq play at home, and the two teams' form is heading in opposite directions. Al Ettifaq have managed only draws in their last two games, but they have not lost in a while. Their attack can still create chances through Ondrej Duda, who is likely to control the tempo in midfield, with Bersant Celina and Yasir Al-Shammari up front. Al Khaleej, meanwhile, have not won at all this season, drawing five of seven matches, and have scored only three goals all season. If Al Ettifaq still cannot break through as in their last two games, which ended in draws, this match could end up tight, because Al Khaleej defend stubbornly and tend to slow the game down. But if the hosts score first from a Duda ball to the front pair, the game could flow one way.
