The stage is set for a thrilling encounter as Al Ettifaq takes on Al Khaleej at the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium in Dammam for a crucial clash in the Pro League. With both teams jostling for positions in the league table, this match has significant implications for their end-of-season aspirations.

Recent Form

Al Ettifaq comes into this fixture following a mixed bag of performances. In their last five matches, they've secured two wins, one draw, and two losses. Notably, they recently triumphed over Al Riyadh with a nail-biting 1-0 victory but fell short against Al Ittihad in a high-scoring affair, losing 3-2. As the 8th place team in the league, Al Ettifaq will be looking to capitalize on their home advantage to boost their points tally and secure a stronger position as the season nears its conclusion.

On the other hand, Al Khaleej, currently positioned 10th in the league, has encountered some struggles of their own, with just one win in their last five matches. Their most recent game ended in a 1-1 draw against Al-Qadsiah, but prior to that, they faced a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Al Hilal. With nine wins and thirteen losses overall this season, they will need a motivational push to rise through the ranks.

Head-to-Head

Recent head-to-head encounters provide an interesting perspective. In their last showdown in December 2024, Al Khaleej emerged victorious with a 2-1 win over Al Ettifaq. This will give them confidence going into the match, knowing that they have the upper hand in their previous meetings.

Betting Odds and Predictions

The betting odds indicate that Al Ettifaq is the favorite for this match, with odds of 2.00 for a home win, suggesting a 50% probability of victory. Al Khaleej's odds sit at 3.10, reflecting a 32.26% chance of securing the win. Given these assessments and the current form, Al Ettifaq’s home advantage makes them likely to clinch the three points.

Expect a competitive match with plenty of chances, especially considering the home team's goal statistics, where they have scored 37 goals but also conceded 41. While both teams are capable of finding the net, there’s a strong chance that Al Ettifaq will come out on top in this showdown.

Betting Suggestion

For those looking to place a bet, a good suggestion would be to back Al Ettifaq to win at odds of 2.00. Alternatively, considering the goal-scoring potential of both sides, betting on over 2.5 goals in the match would be a prudent option as well, given their goal statistics and attacking styles.
