The league table in Pro League tells a story about these teams so far, with Al Ittihad leading Al Raed by 3 points. Match preview to follow:
- Al Ittihad has the fewest conceded goals in the first half (0) in Pro League
- Al Raed has the fewest scored goals in the second half (3) in Pro League
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Kings Cup. That game was an away game at Al Wahda, so at least Al Ittihad are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
These teams have little in common geographically as Al Raed have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Al Ittihad form and stats
2-1-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Pro League numbers at home for Al Ittihad so far this season.
Before that, Ittihad played out a Pro League draw 1-1 when visiting Al Shabab.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Ittihad's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won two matches, drawn zero and lost one.
Ittihad are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 4 games. Ittihad are not conceding a lot of goals here at King Abdullah Sports City in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 3 from 4 matches.
Al Raed form and stats
2-0-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Al Raed in their Pro League matches away. Three has not been a lucky number for Raed as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Abha match.
M. Fouzair was the last player to score for the away team. Raed haven't scored a league goal in the last 286 minutes.
Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus Al Faisaly.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Raed playing away, we found two games. Results were one away win, zero draws and one home win.
Raed are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 7 times in 4 away games so far. In the opposite end, Al Raed have conceded 7 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: six - two - two (Ittihad wins - draws - Al Raed wins). As for goals, seven matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.Al Ittihad missing players
