DomainJava.com – Prediction for Al Fateh vs Al Wehda in the Saudi Pro League match, the Saudi Pro League will see a match between two teams this Thursday who are in trouble.
Al Fateh and Al Wehda are both in the relegation zone and therefore really need a win. The hosts currently have six points from 13 matches and have only managed to win one match this season.
Al Fateh would have suffered four straight defeats in the league if not for the heroics of striker Ali Al-Masoud who helped the Al-Ahsa based club achieve a draw against Al Shabab (2-2) in their last league match.
Their rivals, Al Wehda, are also in the same situation. The team managed by Josef Zinnbauer has won one more match than Al Fateh in the Saudi League and pocketed nine points from the same number of matches.
Suhayb Al Zaid will control the midfield operations with his deft touch and forward runs. The 20 year old player has provided two crucial assists for his team and will try to increase his assist tally.
Despite Al Zaid’s best efforts, the club performed poorly and left its fans disappointed.
The youngster could prove to be a game changer and emerge as their savior in the upcoming match against Al Wehda.
Suhayb has played in almost all matches for Al Zaid this season and is therefore a much-needed player for his team. However, he also received two yellow cards.
With three goals and three assists, Craig Goodwin is doing everything right for Al-Wehda. The 33 year old left winger just scored a goal against Al Akhdoud. The Adelaide-born player will certainly create problems for Al Fateh if they are not careful.
Al-Fateh is preparing for this match after drawing 2-2 in the Professional League against Al-Shabab.
In that match, Al-Fateh controlled the ball 37% and made 14 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target. On the other hand, Al-Shabab made 30 attempts on goal with 9 on target. Haroune Camara (54′) scored for Al-Shabab.
Al-Fateh have been conceding quite often recently, although they have also found ways to turn their own chances into goals. In their last 6 matches, Al-Fateh conceded goals in 6 matches and also scored goals in 5 of them.
Having suffered defeat last time out to Al-Okhdood in a Professional League match, Al-Wahda and their traveling fans will be hoping for a better result here.
In that match, Al-Wahda controlled the ball 66% and made 10 attempts on goal with 6 on target. For Al-Wahda, the goal scorers were Odion Ighalo (5′), Jawad El Yamiq (40′ Own goal) and Craig Goodwin (58′). For their opponents, Al-Okhdood fired 17 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. Christian Bassogog (32′) scored for Al-Okhdood.
As proof of their involvement in fruitful matches, the opponent’s goal has been conceded 20 times in the previous six matches that Al-Wahda has participated in, for an average of 3.33 goals per match. Their opponents scored 13 goals from that total. However, such a trend would not continue into this match.
The previous league match between these two clubs was the Professional League match day 25 on 03/30/2024 which ended with a score of 2-3 in favor of Al-Wahda.
On that day, Al-Wahda managed to control the ball 38% and fired 17 shots at goal, 7 of which were on target. Their only player to score was Anselmo (42′, 51′).
On the other hand, Al-Fateh made 15 attempts on goal with 8 of them being on target. Cristian Tello (29′, 68′) was the goal scorer. (ed)
