Al Khalidiyah vs Manama Club Prediction: The home team will win with ease

In round 12 of the Bahrain Premier League, Al Khalidiyah will play Manama Club at Al Muharraq Stadium. The two teams are coming off a win and will feel confident heading into this one. Which side takes the maximum points? In the following sections, I will preview this game and offer the best betting opportunities.

Al Khalidiyah

Al Khalidiyah played Al-Hala in their last match in the King’s Cup quarterfinal and secured a win. In a one-sided encounter, this team was four goals ahead before the break, with Mahdi Abduljabbar and Nizar Al Rashdan both netting twice. However, despite being held to a 2-2 draw in the second half, the outcome was not enough to change the narrative of the game. In the meantime, the home team's last league game was against Sitra and they won 2-0, with Mahdi Abduljabbar and Nizar Al Rashdan both finding the back of the net. Ahead of this game, Al Khalidiyah have won three of their last five games, defeating Ali SC in that run. 

Manama Club

Manama Club played Al-Najma in their last league contest and secured a win. In a 1-2 contest, this team needed to come from behind to secure a win, thanks to Rafa Santos and Gaston Rodriguez's second-half goals. In the meantime, that win was Manama Club’s lone victory in their last five games. In prior encounters, this team lost to Al-Shabbab and East Riffa while drawing Malkia and Bahrain SC. Ahead of this game 12, Manama Club have only 10 points in their first eleven league matches. The visitors are just seven points ahead of bottom-placed East Riffa, having scored seven goals and conceded 20 this season. 

Expert Betting Tips

Al Khalidiyah have no excuse for dropping points in this game as I expect the home team to dominate. Also, with Manama Club struggling to show character against tough opponents and against this team, I do not see them scoring on the road. Therefore, with the home team being the better side with a solid record in the last meetings, a win for the host with goals is a good option. 

Our first option is a win for Al Khalidiyah and over 1.5 goals with odds at 1.64 on 1Xbet

Our second option is both teams to score no with odds at 1.61 on Bet365

Our last option is over 2.5 goals with odds at 1.75 on Betway
