Competition: Saudi Pro League

Market: Al-Ahli to score in both halves

Odds: 19/20 @ Pribet

Looking to take another giant leap towards punching their AFC Champions League ticket, Al-Ahli will welcome Al-Fateh to the King Abdullah Sports City on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Al-Ahli might have signed off April with a 2-0 defeat away at bitter rivals and Pro League leaders Al-Nassr, Matthias Jaissle’s side came immediately roaring back over the weekend. Putting in a dominant display on home soil as they cruised their way to a 4-0 romp against Al-Okhdodd, the Royals are enjoying what has become an extended purple patch. Sat in bronze medal position among Saudi’s elite, the former Salzburg boss finds the mood in his camp at a red-hot high and the Whites are rightfully installed as a landslide contender here. In fact, Al-Ahli have won five of their previous six appearances. Likewise, suffering just a single defeat from their last nine straight outings, Wednesday’s hosts have also gained a reputation for their dominance at the the King Abdullah Sports City. It should be highlighted, Jaissle’s camp have won all of their previous five consecutive matchups in front of their own supporters.

As for the visitors, while Al-Fateh might have all but mathematically extended on their Pro League status for another campaign, Jose Gomes’ downbeat squad are limping their way over the finishing line. Despite mounting a late comeback at home against Neom over the weekend as they eventually snatched a 2-2 stalemate, the one-time Reading boss has seen his squad muster just a sole win from any of their previous seven consecutive appearances – a rut that stems back to February 23rd. Facing what is a monumental challenge when they travel to the Saudi high-flyers, Al-Fateh have also continued to struggle on their travels. Including an action-packed 3-2 defeat away at Al-Taawon on March 6th, Wednesday’s guests have failed to claim a single victory from their last seven straight showdowns on the road (four defeats, three draws). It should also be highlighted, Gomes’ side were also hit with a routine 2-0 loss when they last travelled to Al-Ahli back in February 2025.
