This could be an interesting match as Al Ta'ee have their presumed home advantage while Al Batin are ahead 20 points in the Division 1 table.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Al Batin have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-3-13 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches.
