20:00 AL Ittihad Ksa – Al Taawon

The Yellow-Blacks have small chances to finish the season at Top 3 in the Saudi Professional League, but chances still exist and that’s why I expect motivation of the players to be on a high level for this home game against Al-Taawon FC.

Al-Ittihad FC is not among the teams with the best attacks in this league, but the truth is, that the hosts showed good efficiency in offense in their last four games at this stadium, scoring at least two goals in three of those four encounters (3-0-1 9-7).

In the same time, the Yellow-Blacks managed to keep empty net only once in their last ten games at “King Abdullah Sports City”.

Al-Taawon FC is in negative series of six consecutive games without a win in the league (1-0-5 5-11), but it doesn’t change the fact, that the Yellow-Blues showed a relatively good efficiency in attack in their last four away games, scoring at least one goal in each of those four encounters.

An interesting fact is, that six of the last seven games between these two teams ended with three or more goals, including each of their three meetings at “King Abdullah Sports City” in this period (Al-Ittihad FC – Al-Taawon FC 5-3 on 09.09.2011 ; Al-Ittihad FC – Al-Taawon FC 2-1 on 09.03.2013 ; Al-Ittihad FC – Al-Taawon FC 2-1 on 27.09.2013).
