Al Ittihad vs Diriyah prediction
Al Ittihad come into this on the back of perhaps their best performance of the season as they hammered Al Ettifaq by four goals to one away from home. That leaves them sitting fourth and five adrift of top spot ahead of this match day.
Following their promotion to the top-flight last season and their fairly heavy summer of spending that came as a result, Diriyah have been competitive this season and that continued with a 1-0 defeat of Al Riyadh in their most recent outing.
Diriyah have scored just nine goals in ten games with only the bottom two teams scoring fewer, while Al Ittihad have lacked fluency aside from their win the other day so, while the hosts are favourites, it may not be a high-scoring contest.
Al Ittihad vs Diriyah tip: Al Ittihad to win & under 3.5 goals
