Al-AhliForm guide
Al-Fayha are in the bottom half with seven points from nine games: one win, four draws and four defeats. They have scored only 8 league goals. At home they have won one, drawn two and lost one, conceding 8 in four games. Their last outing was a 2-0 defeat at Al-Khaleej.
Al-Ahli are sixth with 15 points from eight games and have scored 20 league goals, 11 of them from Ivan Toney. They come into this game in good form: a 4-0 win at Al-Fateh in the league and a 3-1 win at Al Wasl in the AFC Champions League Elite. Their weak point is away form, with two wins and three defeats on the road.
Head-to-head
Al-Ahli have dominated this fixture. They are unbeaten in the last five meetings, winning four, with an aggregate score of 10-1. Al-Fayha's only point in that run was a 1-1 draw at home in April 2026. Across all their meetings, Al-Ahli have eight wins to Al-Fayha's one.
Our prediction and why
We take Al-Ahli or draw (X2). Al-Fayha have won once all season, and Al-Ahli have not lost to them in the last five meetings. Al-Ahli's uneven away record is the reason we choose double chance rather than an away win.
Other bets to consider
Over 1.5 goals is our second pick. Seven of Al-Ahli's eight league games and seven of Al-Fayha's nine had at least two goals. Al-Fayha concede around two goals a game at home.
