Al Fateh vs Al Raed Prediction
Al Fateh are hovering just above the bottom three and the relegation places as they come into this one on the back of back-to-back 2-1 defeats to Al Taawon and Al Kholood in games in which they have gone down to ten men in both matches. They now face an Al Raed side that are the team just about in the danger zone with the visitors’ 3-1 loss to Al Wehda the other day meaning they have now managed just one win in their last 13 matches in the Pro League. If Al Fateh can keep 11 men on the pitch, especially with home advantage, they should be sided with for this one.
