Al Fateh vs Al Raed Prediction & Betting Tips (18 April)

This game has huge implications at both ends of the table, with Al Fateh battling to stay up and Al Raed attempting to book a place in the playoffs. Although the two teams have very different ambitions, they each seem to love a draw, with the Al Fateh managing six in 12 fourth-tier home games and the Al Raed securing a good place in the Saudi Professional League.

Five of the last six Al Fateh matches in the Saudi Professional League have served up two goals or more, so the promotion-chasing outfit have proven reasonably entertaining to watch in recent times. The same can be said of Al Raed on their second-tier travels, as eight of their last ten encounters have also been of the over 2.5 goals variety, so this clash is expected to deliver something similar.

Al Fateh are currently on a run of 11 consecutive top-flight fixtures in which they have both scored and conceded during the same 90 minutes, so consistency has certainly not been lacking on this particular front. This has also been the case in five of the previous six Al Raed matches at this level, meaning that clean sheets are likely to prove hard to come by.
