Predicted lineups for Al-Ahli vs. Al-Ettifaq

Al-Ahli (4-3-3): Mohammed Al-Owais – Motaz Hawsawi, Lucas Lima, Abdulbasit Hindi, Abdulrahman Ghareeb – Ali Al-Asmari, Driss Fettouhi, Mohammed Al-Majhad – Omar Al-Soma, Salman Al-Moasher, Abdulrahman Al-Obood.

Al-Ahli

In their last league outing, Al-Ahli secured a 2-1 victory at home against Al-Raed. This win marked their second consecutive victory in the Saudi Pro League. Al-Ahli has been strong at home this season, losing only once in their last ten home matches (7 wins, 2 draws). They are currently in third place in the standings and are vying for a spot in the AFC Champions League.


  • The team has scored in each of their last 12 home matches in the league.
  • Al-Ahli has scored two or more goals in 8 of their last 10 home matches.
  • They have not conceded more than one goal in 7 of their last 10 home league matches.

Al-Ettifaq

Al-Ettifaq's last match ended in a 1-1 draw at home against Al-Batin. They have struggled on the road this season, failing to win in their last five away matches (2 draws, 3 losses). Al-Ettifaq is currently in the bottom half of the table, looking to secure enough points to avoid relegation.


  • The team has not won in their last five away matches in the league.
  • Al-Ettifaq has conceded at least two goals in 4 of their last 5 away matches.
  • They have failed to score in 3 of their last 5 away league matches.

Al-Ahli vs. Al-Ettifaq: Match Prediction

Al-Ahli has been impressive at home this season, showing strong attacking prowess and solid defense. In contrast, Al-Ettifaq has struggled on the road, particularly in defense. Considering the current form of both teams, Al-Ahli is expected to dominate this encounter.


My prediction: Al-Ahli win

Betting tips 22 May 2025

The reigning AFC Champions League holders are heading into the final stages of the season without significant pressure. After their win in the previous round, Al-Ahli are on the verge of breaking into the top four, and they are likely to approach the encounter with Al-Ettifaq with an attacking mindset.

This campaign, Al-Ahli fell short in the title race against Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal, but delivered a flawless performance in the AFC Champions League. In Saturday's clash with Al-Kholood (4:1), the team from Jeddah dominated play, producing 3.38 xG and registering 17 attempts. At home, Al-Ahli have netted 42 goals in 16 matches — only Al-Ittihad (46) and Al-Hilal (52) have outscored them in the league.

Since 15 March, Al-Ettifaq have managed just two wins from eight Saudi Pro League outings. In their goalless draw with Damaca, the squad created only 0.40 xG despite enjoying 63% possession, with the midfield led by Georginio Wijnaldum lacking creative spark. Al-Ettifaq have lost three and drawn one of their last four away fixtures, and their upcoming trip to Jeddah is unlikely to bring a change in fortunes.

In the reverse fixture, Al-Ahli earned a 2:1 away win over Al-Ettifaq. On Wednesday, Al-Ahli are tipped to extend their home winning streak (currently at five matches), and the expectation is a comfortable victory with a negative handicap.
