One of the matches in the 22nd round of the Saudi Arabian Championship will be played on Thursday at the "King Abdullah Sports City Stadium" in Buraidah, where the local Al-Raed will face Al-Fayha. Here's the prediction for this match from the experts on our website.
Al-Raed
Under the guidance of Igor Jovicevic, the team has failed to impress this season and is battling for survival. Currently, Al-Raed occupies only the 14th position in the league table of the Saudi Arabian Championship, having accumulated just 20 points from 21 matches. In their last league match, Al-Raed played to a draw away against Al-Riyadh (1-1). Thus, after securing two consecutive wins in the championship against Al-Ittihad (3-1) and Abha (4-3), Jovicevic's charges dropped points in two consecutive matches. On their home turf, Al-Raed has managed only 4 victories in 10 matches, with six defeats. However, three of those four victories were achieved in their last four home matches.
Al-Fayha
Not long ago, under Vuk Rasovic's guidance, the team was battling on multiple fronts, but in the AFC Champions League, Al-Fayha suffered defeats in two matches against Al-Nassr (0-1 and 0-2) and exited the tournament. Now, the "orange and blues" have the opportunity to focus on the local championship, where things haven't been smooth sailing. Currently, Al-Fayha sits in 10th place in the league table, with 25 points to their name. Nevertheless, they are only seven points clear of the relegation zone. In their last match, Al-Fayha defeated Abha at home with a scoreline of 3-2. This victory marked their second consecutive win after a five-match losing streak in the championship.
