Only a win will satisfy the Al Ahli Jeddah supporters in this King Abdullah Sports City Reserve Stadium clash with Al Fateh, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Pro League table.

Insights:
  • Al Ahli Jeddah has the most scored goals in the first half (10) in Pro League
  • Al Fateh has the most matches over the total-line (6) in Pro League

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

Al Fateh have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
