AL ORUBAH VS AL FATEH PREDICTION

Al Orubah have a weak squad and, naturally, as one of the newly-promoted sides in the Saudi Pro League, are and were expected to struggle throughout this season with that looking likely to be proven to be a correct assumption. They face an Al Fateh side that have the ability to flirt with a tilt at the top four of five but they are more likely to be firmly ensconced in the middle-of-the-table. Still, though, they would be slight favourites for this one.
