Al Kholood host Al Ettifaq in the Saudi league, with the home side sinking deeper into a worsening run after losing 3 matches in a row, including conceding 2-3 in their latest game, while the visitors also just lost 1-4 but overall look steadier because they went unbeaten in the league for several matches before that. The pattern of the two teams is likely to come out with Al Ettifaq having slightly more possession according to the stats of the last 10 matches at 53.1% compared to 48.7% for the hosts, while Al Kholood will focus on sitting back and waiting to counter. But the home side's defence is the worry, because in the last 10 matches they have conceded shots on target at an average of 4 per game and have already let in 18 goals from 9 league matches. The visitors themselves aren't especially solid either, particularly in the second half where they concede 30% of all their goals in the closing stages. Al Kholood's first half at home usually has goals in 5 of 7 matches, but the second half is when the hosts concede most often, while Al Ettifaq away from home average only 0.43 goals per game in the first half but tend to open up more in the second. This game should end close and with goals, but the side with the edge in pattern is the visitor, who will have more possession and create more chances.
