AL KHALEEJ TEAM NEWS: NO ISSUES
With a fully fit and available squad for this weekend’s clash with newly-promoted Al Kholood, Al Khaleej would be able to name an unchanged eleven but are likely to try and tweak a couple of things due to their poor form so far.
PREDICTED XI (5-3-2): Al Haidari; Al Hamsal, Al Fahad, Tisserand, Al Shaafi, Rebocho; Hamzi, Kourbelis, Al Sumairi; Narey, Fortounis

AL KHOLOOD TEAM NEWS: FULLY FIT
Similarly to Al Khaleej, albeit with even fewer pre-season expectations, Al Kholood could well make no changes to their eleven given the fact they have a fully fit and available squad with no injury issues or suspension concerns.
PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Grohe; Al Hawsawi, Troost-Ekong, Gyomber, Al Shamrani; N’Doram, Dieng; Collado, Safari, Maolida; Muleka

AL KHALEEJ VS AL KHOLOOD PREDICTION
Al Khaleej come into this one on the back of a 4-1 hammering at the hands of Al Ittihad in their most recent outing at King Abdullah Sports City last week. They did take a shock lead in that game before being blown away in the second-half by the resurgent Jeddah-based club. They now face an Al Kholood side that, following their promotion to the Saudi Pro League, showed some real fight to come from 4-0 down to 4-2 down against the dominant force Al Hilal last weekend but both sides have shown their defensive weaknesses so both teams scoring would appear a good bet for this one.
