Al Fateh vs Al Wehda Prediction
The home team come into this one on the back of a first-half of the season in which they managed to collect just six points with one win from their opening 13 matches of the campaign. Al Fateh went into the winter break on the back of a 2-2 draw with high flying Al Shabab last month. They now face an Al Wehda that are also tucked inside the bottom three and the relegation places and this is expected to be a low quality, potentially low-scoring encounter in this one.
Al Fateh vs Al Wehda Tip: Under 2.5 goals
