26.01.2025, 20:00

Al-Ahli bounced back to winning ways with a victory against Al-Ettifaq in their most recent league game and they’ll now face Al-Riyadh at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium for their 17th round of matches in the Saudi Pro League. Riyadh is having an amazing season with only a defeat in their last five league games and the chances of them giving Al-Ahli a tough time on Sunday is high. We think both teams are evenly matched and we should expect goals from both teams although Al-Ahli remains our favorites for the win. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion.

Al-Ahli bounced back to winning ways after that sad defeat to Al-Kholood earlier this month. They secured a 1-2 victory over Al-Ettifaq to keep their top 3 dreams alive. Roberto Firmino got on the scoresheet in that game. They are in great shape with 4 victories and a loss from their last 5 league games. Al-Ahli’s strength remains in their offensive lineup of Riyad Mahrez, Firmino, and Ivan Toney, it’s hard to face this attacking trio and keep a clean sheet.
Al-Ahli is doing exceptionally well in the AFC Champions League as they’ve won 5 games with a draw from the 6 games played so far in the competition. They are currently 5th placed in the league with 9 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses from the 16 games played.
