Newly promoted Al-Qadisiyah have exceeded our expectations in the league as they’ve only lost a game so far. They are currently 7th placed in the league with an overall league statistics of 2 wins, a draw, and a loss from the four games played. Their most recent league game against Al-Okhdood ended in a goalless draw as both teams failed to find the net. Can they hold off Al-Ahli on Friday?

Al-Ahli secured a 4-2 win against Damac FC in their last league game with Ivan Toney scoring a brace. Al-Ahli is currently 6th placed in the league and has now won two games with a draw and a loss in their last 5 league games. Al-Ahli also kickstarted their AFC Champions League campaign with a win against Persepolis previous week and they’ll face Al-Wasl in the AFC Champions League next week. 

A critical look at their last 16 encounters produced 11 victories for Al-Ahli, 3 wins for Al-Qadisiyah, and 2 draws. 

Al-Ahli has the home advantage here and with their current form, we believe they’ll secure a win here against Qadisiyah. Al-Ahli has not lost to Qadisiyah in their last 5 meetings and we do not expect a loss for Ahli. Our prediction is a win or draw for Al-Ahli and a total of over 1.5 goals. We should also see a total of over 2.5 goals.
