Al Riyadh vs Al Fayha Prediction
Al Riyadh come into this one on the back of a 3-1 defeat at home to Al Raed in the derby in their most recent outing the other day. That loss means they have now managed just one victory in their last five matches. They now face an Al Fayha side that went into the winter break sitting rock-bottom in the Saudi Pro League but they have since propelled themselves out of the bottom three and the relegation places, making themselves very difficult to play against. A low-scoring affair seems very likely for this one.
