Command Analysis

Al-Orobah FC

Current form
As expected, coming from the First League, Al-Oruba does not show bright results. The team is an outsider of the Premier League of the Saudi Arabian Championship, but is stubbornly fighting for survival.
2025 does not bring joy to the club. During this month, four matches were played in the national championship, and only one point was taken - a goalless draw with Al-Taawun in the last round. Moreover, the hosts could not score a single goal, but they conceded ten. Nevertheless, the club is not yet in the safe zone only by additional indicators, but the key word is yet. If the results do not begin to improve, then the position in the ranking cannot be improved.
Disqualifications and injuries
Serry will not take part in the match due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- Al-Oruba have failed to score for five games in a row
- The team has lost its last five matches at home
Probable line-up: Kuke - Al-Makuati, Kandouss, Zouma, Al-Shuwaish, Al-Zubaidi - Gudmundsen, Mukhar, Al-Quarni, Tello - Boateng.

Al Ahli

Current form
Al-Ahly is currently closing the top 5 of the national championship, but much more is expected from this team. The team has big-name players who played in the strongest European championships, and in terms of composition, the club can compete with such teams as Al-Hilal, Al-Nasr and Al-Ittihad. But for now, this is all in theory. In practice, the team is below all of these clubs. The gap from third place, which is Al-Qadisiya, is five points. The handicap is small, and given that they managed to win in four of the last five rounds, it is quite realistic to win it back.
Disqualifications and injuries
The visitors have no problems with their squad ahead of the match against Al-Oruba.
Interesting trends for betting
- The visitors have lost just one of their last ten matches.
- Al Ahly have scored in nine of their last ten matches
Probable line-up: Mendy - Al-Khurai, Demiral, Ibanez, Yaslam - Alexander, Al Johani - Mahrez, Firmino, Veiga - Brican.

1.86Tip and bets
Based on Al-Orouba performance in previous matches, it can be assumed that the team will not be able to achieve success in the upcoming game.
Al Ahly are playing at a high level, and nine wins in their last 11 matches show that the club is in excellent shape. The team is aiming to get into the AFC Champions League zone, and to do so, they need to at least make up a handicap of five points. Losing to an opponent like Al Oruba, even away, is unforgivable.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Al Ahly with odds of 1.88
Bet on total
In the last match with Al-Riyadh, Al-Ahli won with a score of 5:0. Al-Oruba have not scored against their opponents in the last five games, and this is despite the fact that most teams are below the upcoming opponent in the national championship. We believe that the hosts will not be able to score in the upcoming match either.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 1.76
Bet on corners
If Al-Ahly plays according to its repertoire, it will be able to beat its opponent not only in terms of the score, but also in terms of many additional indicators, which include corner kicks.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-2.5) corners on Al-Ahli with odds of 1.70
