This match is anticipated to be highly competitive, with both teams expected to demonstrate strength, focus, and determination to secure a victory. However, the home team is not in their best shape heading into this match, making it challenging to place trust in their performance. Conversely, Al Ittihad has shown better form this season, and I expect them to capitalize on their chances. Considering the trend in their previous meetings, this matchup is likely to witness goals from both sides, making a bet on over 2.5 goals also seem plausible.
