Al Fateh vs Al Ahli prediction
Al Fateh come into this one having started the season with just one victory in their opening nine matches. The hosts went into the mid-season break on the back of back-to-back losses in the Pro League before a 4-1 hammering at the hands of Al Hilal in the quarter-finals of the King’s Cup of Champions.
Under the management of Matthias Jaissle, Al Ahli have done well on the continent but have struggled domestically. They have been too inconsistent and, again, are fourth in the table after five victories and four draws in their nine matches, most recently hammering Al Shorta by five goals to nil in the AFC Champions League.
Al Ahli aren’t the most trustworthy team for this competition but they have been difficult to beat, are in good form overall and should win this one quite comfortably.
