Damac FC vs Al-Ittihad FC Prediction: Ittihad continues to wax stronger

Al-Ittihad continues to wax stronger in their pursuit of Saudi league glory this season as they fight against all odds. They lost their grip at the top of the league table after their draw against Al-Feiha early this month but they’ve bounced back right into it and continue their surge for positive outcomes. Damac FC on the other hand have had their fair share of failures this season and with the look of things they’ll suffer yet another defeat to Ittihad on Monday. Ittihad is in superb form and our prediction here aligns with a victory for Al-Ittihad. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion. 

Damac FC (12th)

Form in the League: LLWDL

Damac has lost two consecutive league games in their last two league games with just a victory in their last five league games. Their most recent league game was against Al-Fateh and it ended in a 2-1 defeat to Damac. They are currently 12th placed in the league with an overall league statistics of 5 wins, 3 draws, and 8 losses from 16 games played. Can they get a positive form against an amazing Al-Ittihad side?

Al-Ittihad FC (2nd)

Form in the League: WWDWW

Ittihad extended their 11-game unbeaten league run with a 2-1 victory against Al-Shabab in their last league game. Benzema got his name on the scoresheet in that game which now makes it two games in a row for Benzema. Al-Ittihad continues to shine in the league and there’s no telling what they will do to Damac on Monday. Karim Benzema is in the form of his life and he has scored 14 goals for Al-Ittihad already this season and is the team's current top scorer. 

Al-Ittihad is currently second in the league table with 14 wins, a draw, and a loss from the 16 league games they’ve played this season. Karim Benzema leads their scoring efforts with 14 league goals. 

Head-To-Head Statistics

Al-Ittihad has gotten the better of Damac in their last 10 meetings with 4 wins while Damac has 3 wins and 3 draws. 

Expert Betting Tips

Al-Ittihad is in good form having won 14 games from the 16 league games they’ve played this season with only a defeat so far in the league. If there’s ever a time for Ittihad to continue winning, it’s now because they are level on points with the current league leaders, Al-Hilal and a draw could be costly to their championship dreams. Damac is struggling and they cannot match the strength of Al-Ittihad and our prediction favors an Al-Ittihad win or draw and a total of over 2.5 goals. 

Karim Benzema is in the form of his life having found the net in 5 of their last 6 league games and we believe he’ll find the net here. Please see some of their head-to-head streaks below;
