AL ETTIFAQ VS AL ORUBAH PREDICTION
Steven Gerrard’s Al Ettifaq began the season with three successive victories but, as mentioned, returned to similar form to last season before the October international break. Following their promotion last year, Al Orubah have signed some interesting players but they have still suffered three defeats in their six matches. Despite their recent dip in form, Al Ettifaq should come out on top in this one, especially with their home advantage.
