In home matches, they showed dominance with nine wins from the last 10 matches. They are also superior in their head-to-head record against Al-Ahli with two wins in the last two meetings.

They also have a productive attack line with 16 goals scored in eight weeks. However, they still have weaknesses at the back with 13 goals conceded.

They have only one win in their last seven matches in all competitions, including four defeats in the Saudi Arabian pro league. On the road, they have also been disappointing with three defeats in the last five matches. They also lost their last two matches against Al-Ittihad.
With the advantage of the field and the quality of the players, Al-Ittihad is expected to easily get three points in this match.
