AL RAED VS AL RIYADH PREDICTION
It is a derby game this weekend with both sides appearing very evenly matched in the middle-of-the-table in the Saudi Pro League. Both sides have also shown a capability to attack quite well and efficiently, too, with the two sides combing for 12 goals between the two with six goals aside. Given that, the fact it is evenly matched as well as a rivalry, both teams scoring seems a good bet for this one.
