1.72Tip and bets
The visitors rarely surprise with their play and quite often suffer defeats in the Premier League. The hosts have not performed well in recent matches either, but still look much stronger than their opponents. The match with the outsider is a great chance for Al-Khaleej to win their first victory in four matches. We believe that the hosts' success is very likely, and we suggest betting on this.
Our prediction is Al-Khalij win at 1.72
Bet on total
The hosts regularly score, but do not often have super-scoring matches. At the same time, the visitors are doing poorly with the implementation of moments - only one goal in the last three matches. We believe that the outsider will not be able to break through the defense of Al-Khalij. Most likely, the home team will score one or two goals, and then calmly bring the match to victory.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals at 1.68
Bet on corners
It is highly likely that teams will avoid corner kicks, as a bad play could lead to a dangerous counterattack, which is absolutely useless for either team.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners for 1.90
