AL TAAWON VS AL HILAL PREDICTION
In their most recent outing, Al Taawon defeated Altyn Asyr by two goals to one in the group stages of the AFC Cup in midweek. The hosts sit just outside of the top five ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures in the Saudi Pro League. Al Hilal, who went unbeaten to win the Pro League last season, won by five goals to four against Al Ain in the AFC Champions League in midweek and they have won all 13 of their matches across all competitions with 40 goals scored in that time. Al Hilal are firm favourites once again for this one, despite Al Taawon’s decent form and home advantage.
AL TAAWON VS AL HILAL TIP: AL HILAL TO WIN
