Summary
In just three days gap, Al Ittihad have given a great account of how their season has gone by. Title defence is long gone now, and their only ambition remains to qualify for Asian football somehow. In an attempt to return to winning ways, they welcome Al Khaleej, who have a poor away record. Friday night action in the Saudi Pro League will kick off your weekend. Discover where to watch Al Ittihad vs Al Khaleej in our article.
When Al Ittihad drew with Al Hilal a week ago, everyone thought the defending champions found their groove. Despite losing Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante, they emerged on a three-game winning run before holding off Al Hilal.
A Roger Fernandes goal seemed to be the winner against Al Hazem in the 80th minute. But reminding us why they’re a shade of themselves, they conceded in the 84th minute to be held to another 1-1 draw. Al Ittihad return home after three straight away games and would love to return to winning ways to somehow reach Asian football. But with a key round of 16 clash against Al-Wahda midweek, Sergio Conceicao might even consider rotating his side in the league on Friday.
Al Khaleej will welcome a rotated Al Ittihad lineup with open arms. Georgios Donis’ side are winless in eight games after a three-game winning start to the year. They lost five games and had three draws during that run. Al Khaleej outscored their opponents but have a porous defence that was on show once again in a 3-2 defeat to Al Kholood last time out. They have no victories away from this season and are desperate for a change in fortunes. Al Khaleej haven’t finished in the top half of the table in nearly a decade. They have to be at their very best to pick up a first-ever victory against Al Ittihad as well.
