Al Wehda vs Al Qadsiah Prediction

Al Wehda have struggled throughout this campaign with just three victories in their 14 matches so far this season in the Saudi Pro League. The hosts returned from the Saudi Arabian winter break with a vital 2-1 victory over Al Fateh at the weekend, though, thanks to goals from Craig Goodwin and Odion Ighalo. They now face an Al Qadsiah side that have been excellent following their promotion to the top-flight last season but after beating Al Taawon in the cup last week, they then suffered a 3-0 defeat at home to the same opposition last weekend in the league. Despite that, they remain the favourites for this one.

Al Wehda vs Al Qadsiah Tip: Double chance – Al Qadsiah to win or draw
