Al Fayha vs Al Ittihad Prediction

As mentioned, Al Fayha have struggled throughout the campaign as they sit in the bottom three and the relegation places with just one win in their 13 matches so far this season. They now face an Al Ittihad side that have been back to their best this season and defeated Al Hilal on penalties in the quarter-finals of the King Cup of Champions in midweek. Despite their injuries in attack and being away from Jeddah for this weekend, they remain the overwhelming favourites for a comfortable victory for this one.
