AL WEHDA VS DAMAK PREDICTION

With two victories in their opening nine matches of the campaign, Al Wehda have started poorly. The home team come into this one on the back of a 3-1 hammering at the hands of Al Shabab last weekend, as mentioned. They now face a Damak side that have suffered just one defeat in four matches to hover just outside of the danger zone. The two teams have scored 25 goals between them thus far so it could be a surprisingly entertaining clash for the neutral.
