Throughout the King's Cup tournament, Al-Hilal has demonstrated remarkable performance, consistently delivering impressive results. Their ultimate goal is to claim victory in the finals against Al-Wehda and solidify their outstanding efforts. However, their recent defeat to Urawa Red Diamonds in the AFC Champions League, with a 2-1 aggregate score, may still linger in the minds of the players. The team will need to overcome any reminiscence of this setback and ensure that it does not hinder their performance in the upcoming King's Cup finals on Friday.

Al-Wehda LDWLL
After a stunning upset against Al-Nassr, led by Ronaldo, in the King's Cup semi-finals, Al-Wehda has secured their spot in the finals and is now gearing up to face Al-Hilal on Friday. The question remains: Can Al-Wehda conjure up another miraculous performance to overcome Al-Hilal? It's worth noting that Al-Wehda's last triumph in the King's Cup dates back to 1966, which marks the last time they were able to lift the prestigious trophy.
Al-Wehda has been very poor in their league run this season. Currently, at the bottom half of the table, their overall league statistics are 5 wins, 8 draws, and 12 losses from 25 games played.

Expert Betting Tips
The last time Al-Wehda lifted the trophy was in 1966, over 57 years. They will give it their all to emerge as champions here. But there is the big problem of Al-Hilal who just lost out on the AFC champions league and will be seeking consolation for their defeat. With the recent form of both teams, Hilal is the favorite to win the trophy.
We expect a very tight and cagy game as Al-Wehda will most definitely pull off the defensive card and as such we may be seeing little or no goals in the first half of the game. We predict a first-half draw. Lastly, Hilal should get a minimum of 2 goals in this game.
