AL KHALEEJ TEAM NEWS: FULLY FIT AND AVAILABLE
The so-called ‘star’ players at Al Khaleej are perhaps of a lower profile than that of the more monied clubs in the Pro League. The reliance on quality falls upon the shoulders of the likes of Ibrahim Sehic, Marcel Tisserand, Dimitris Kourbelis and Fabio Martins.
PREDICTED XI (X-X-X-X): Sehic; Al Fahad, Tisserand, Al Khabrani, Rebocho; Narey, Kourbelis, Al Sumari, Martins; Al Salem, Hamzi

AL FAYHA TEAM NEWS: STILL NO ONYEKURU
There are a couple of injury absentees for Al Fayha with the most important one being former Everton forward and Nigeria international Henry Onyekuru. There is a lot of a reliance on Onyekuru for goals in the Al Fayha attack. Chris Smalling is also out suspended.
PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Orlando Mosquera; Al Dowaish, Al Khaibari, Al Rashidi, Abdi; Cimirot, Kaabi, Al Harthi; Alejandro Pozuelo, Renzo Lopez, Sakala
UNAVAILABLE: Smalling (Suspended), Abusabaan (Injured), Onyekuru (Injured)

AL KHALEEJ VS AL FAYHA PREDICTION
Al Khaleej do not have the finances or quality of many of the leading sides in the Saudi Pro League and that does mean they are set for a battle against the bottom three and the relegation places throughout the campaign. The two standout names in the Al Fayha squad are both unavailable for this one and they have had a nightmare-ish start to this season so the likelihood is that this one is an extremely underwhelming affair.
AL KHALEEJ VS AL FAYHA TIP: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
