This AFC Champions League Two fixture brings Al Faysali and Al Taawoun together in clearly different states. Al Faysali have just closed out with a 2-2 draw in the league, while Al Taawoun have just lost 1-2 at home in the league as well. Al Faysali are still unbeaten in their last five and have just thrashed their opponents in the cup 2-0. Their attack looks fluid, though there are moments when the defence gets caught out. Al Taawoun, meanwhile, have not found their rhythm lately, losing two league games in a row, and across their own league season they have not won at all: 4 draws, 7 defeats, scoring just 5 and conceding 19. However, in this cup they have just won 2-1 in mid-month, a match where their attack worked very differently from the league. This game is likely to unfold gradually. Al Faysali will have more of the ball and push high, but Al Taawoun are good at sitting deep and waiting to counter. If the hosts score first the game could open up, but if Al Taawoun hold out until late, it will get tighter and more likely to finish close.
