Al Taawon vs Al Ettifaq prediction

On the opening day of the season, Al Taawon suffered a 5-0 annihilation at the hands of a strong and resurgent Al Nassr side. Upon their return from the September international break, Al Taawon entertainingly defeated Al Okhdood by three goals to two, courtesy of a Musa Barrow brace as well as a strike from Roger Martinez.

They now face an Al Ettifaq side that, under the management of Saad Al Shehri, began their season with a hard-fought 2-1 defeat of Al Kholood on the opening day of the season. That was then followed up with a goalless draw against one of the so-called ‘big four’ of Saudi Arabian football, Al Ahli, at the Al Ettifaq Club Stadium.

Al Taawon were unconvincing in their defeat of what does appear to be a poor and average Al Okhdood side, and so siding with Al Ettifaq would appear the way to go for this one.
