It's advantage Al Hilal so far with their 2nd position in the Pro League table, welcoming Abha who are placed 9th.

Insights:

  • Abha have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Al Hilal and Abha should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Abha have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
