Key stats and predictions for Kings Cup 16th Finals between Al Ittifaq and Al Ta'ee

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.

Al Ta'ee play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for Al Ta'ee when playing on artificial turf are 1 win, 0 draws and 4 defeats from five matches. They have scored 3 goals and conceded 9 times in these games.

Al Ta'ee have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Al Ittifaq form and stats

Al Ittifaq was eliminated in the quarter-finals last season in the Kings Cup. Al Hilal was too strong.

Al Ittifaq have collected 3 points from their Pro League home games so far after 1-0-4.

The Al Ittifaq fans got no joy from their last match, a Pro League game also here at Prince Faisal bin Fahad Stadium: A 1-2 defeat against Al Ittihad. A strong away win before that one, visiting Al Taqdom and winning 6-0.

Al Ittifaq aren't scoring a lot here at Prince Faisal bin Fahad Stadium in the league, with only 4 goals from 5 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Al Ittifaq defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 5 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Al Ta'ee form and stats

They also participated in Kings Cup last season. This ended in the 32nd finals, when Al Taqdom drew the shortest straw.

The story so far for the visiting team on their Division 1 travels is 3 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

Al Ta'ee aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 204 league minutes without a goal. Leo was the last player to find the net.

Al Ta'ee are travelling after their nice 5-0 home win in the Division 1 against Hottain. Before that, Al Ta'ee travelled to Al Khaleej and returned home with a draw after the Division 1 game finished 1-1.

As mentioned above, Al Ta'ee was the only team on the pitch versus Hottain in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task.

Al Ta'ee are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 7 away goals from 7 games (in the league). 10 goals have been conceded by Al Ta'ee in these games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 5 wins for Al Ittifaq, 2 draws and 3 wins for Al Ta'ee. Over 2,5 goals: 5 times; under 2,5 goals: 5 games.
