Command Analysis
Al Ittihad
Saudi ArabiaCurrent form
Al-Ittihad finished 2024 in first place in the league table, and the beginning of 2025 was also successful, because in the quarterfinals of the King Cup they managed to beat Al-Hilal in a penalty shootout. But in the last round, Laurent Blanc protégés unexpectedly stumbled against one of the league outsiders, Al-Feiha, playing a draw (1:1). This draw moved Benzema and company from first place to second, but so far only on additional indicators the hosts are losing the lead to Al-Hilal. They can't lose any more points, of course, if the team wants to continue to fight for the championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
Al-Amri, Kante, Al-Shehri will not take part in the match due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Al-Ittihad have won all their home matches this season
- The hosts have not lost in 14 games in a row
Probable line-up: Rajkovic - Al-Shanketi, Kadesh, Pereira, Mitai - Fabinho, Al-Nashri - Hawsawi, Aouar, Al-Oboud - Benzema.
Al-Raed
Saudi ArabiaCurrent form
Al-Raed has recently lost its game plan, having lost three previous matches in the national championship and found itself outside the top 10 (12th place). The team also lost three previous matches away from home, but in the last round, when the game was against Al-Hilal, it managed to put up a strong resistance to the champion and lost only with a minimal score of 2:3. This clearly spurred on the players, and in the upcoming match, of course, they will try to fight for points. Moreover, in the last face-to-face confrontation at this stadium, Al-Raed won with a score of 3:1.
Disqualifications and injuries
Foizair will not take to the field due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- Al-Raed have lost their last three away matches
- The visitors have failed to score in two of the last four matches
Estimated lineup: Sanuir - Al-Rajeh, Qasmi, Gonzalez, Al-Jaizani - Al-Dossari, Khazazi, Norman, Al-Subaie, Al-Amri - El-Berkawi.

1.88Tip and bets
Al-Ittihad clearly made a mistake in the last round and is eager to rehabilitate themselves both in front of their fans and in front of the management. Al-Raed showed character in the last away match against Al-Hilal, losing with a minimal score of 2:3. We believe that in the second game in a row against one of the leaders of the national championship, the guests will not be able to demonstrate such high-quality football and will lose with a difference of several goals.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Al-Ittihad with odds of 1.65
Bet on total
Al-Ittihad plays well in attack, but their defense sometimes leaves much to be desired. In three of the last six matches in front of local fans, the hosts did not leave their goal intact, and Al-Raed scored twice in the last away match against Al-Hilal and, as we believe, will be able to distinguish themselves at least once in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.88
Bet on corners
Al-Ittihad will most likely dictate the rules of the game in the upcoming match and will be able to win the match not only by the score, but also by other additional indicators, which include corner kicks.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-2.5) corners on Al-Ittihad with odds of 1.77
