NextGOAL tip: Al-Fayha +1.5 · 2 stars
In the last six meetings between these two teams, Al Ahli won as many as five, and there were two matches that ended with a margin of as much as four goals. This time Al-Fayha play at home, having collected only seven points after nine matches, sitting in 14th place in the table, while Al Ahli are in 6th and still not far behind the top group. Al-Fayha have just finished their last five matches with a 0-2 defeat at home, and across those five matches they drew as many as three and won none. Their attack still relies mainly on shots from outside the box, because their average shots on target per match is still clearly lower than their opponents'. As for Al Ahli, they have won two matches in a row, and in their last five they scored heavily, with as many as three matches won by two goals or more, but their defence still shows gaps, especially late in matches, where they concede as much as 26% of all the goals they concede. If Al-Fayha defend tightly and do not open up to trade blows from the start, this match has a better chance of ending closely contested than the head-to-head history used to suggest, because Al Ahli's recent form, though it looks fierce, has still seen them concede in every match they have played, and the fact that Al-Fayha play at home and tend not to lose heavily will keep the game from slipping away easily.
