Al Kholood vs Al Khaleej Prediction

Al Kholood come into this one on the back of being thrashed 5-1 by the faltering Al Hilal in their most recent outing the other day. They will be more than content with their current position of sitting firmly in mid-table, though. They now face an Al Khaleej side that most recently shared a 1-1 draw with league leaders Al Ittihad at the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium the other day thanks to an equalising penalty scored by Greece international Kostas Fortounis deep into second-half stoppage-time. A double chance bet in favour of the visitors would appear good value for this one.

Al Kholood vs Al Khaleej Tip: Double chance – Al Khaleej to win or draw
