Al-Ittihad vs Al-Ettifaq: Prediction for the Match on April 21, 2025

Prediction for the Saudi Pro League match between Al-Ittihad and Al-Ettifaq, which will take place on April 21st. Ittihad is one more defeat away from doom as the Saudi Pro League nears its end. Ettifaq, on the flip side, has nothing to lose at this point. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Al-Ittihad was dealt a deadly blow in the face by an almost relegated Al-Fateh last week. The game was a tremendous one with so many opportunities for both teams, but Fateh had their head in the game and took their chances when it mattered the most. Sbai opened the scoreline for Fateh with a goal in the 10th minute. Fateh got a penalty in the 35th minute, but Batna couldn’t convert it as he steered it off target. Ittihad got a penalty in the 44th minute, but Fabinho also failed to convert from the spot. Matias Vargas finally doubled Fateh’s lead in the 69th minute, and the game ended in a woeful 2-0 defeat to Ittihad. This defeat happens to be their third defeat this season. Ittihad remains the team with the fewest losses in the Saudi Pro League this season. 

With Hilal being inconsistent in form in recent times, Al-Ittihad must steer in the opposite direction and take all points from every match they play at this point. The season is nearing its end and Ittihad is now 4 points clear of their closest rivals Al-Hilal. 

Karim Benzema is in the form of his life; he has scored 17 goals for Al-Ittihad already this season and is the team's current top scorer. Al-Ittihad leads the Saudi Pro League with 20 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses from the 28 league games they’ve played this season. 

Laurent Boanc will field the same set of players that suffered a 0-2 defeat to Fateh last week for them to redeem themselves, but practically because that’s his best available team at the moment. The team's highest goal scorer, Benzema, will take his spot at the forefront of Ittihad’s attack, accompanied by Houssem Aouar, and the midfield will be held by some of Europe's finest midfielders. Benzema couldn’t find the net in their 0-2 defeat to Fateh as he couldn’t find his footing in that game; it was a bad performance for him. 

🔖 Al-Ittihad starting lineup (4-2-3-1)

Al-Mahasneh – Danilo Pereira, Al-Sagour, Al-Amri, Kadesh – N’golo Kante, Fabinho – Moussa Diaby, Aouar, Unai Hernandez – Karim Benzema

👤 Head coach: Laurent Blanc

Al-Shehri’s Al-Ettifaq managed to get a victory against Al-Riyadh in their last league game. I call it a narrow victory because Al-Riyadh equally had a great game, but the teams were separated by Vitinho’s penalty in the 59th minute. 

They’ve had quite a fair success in their last five league games with 2 wins, 2 draws, and a loss from their last five league games. There’s nothing to lose for Al-Ettifaq as they are probably already far from the relegation zone. Their overall league statistics are 11 wins, 7 draws, and 10 losses from the 28 league games played. Georginio Wijnaldum leads the team's efforts on goals with 11 goals to the good.

Al-Shehri will most definitely put up the same squad as the one against Al-Riyadh, with Wijnaldum leading the team's attack and Vitinho back into the squad. Al-Khateeb is back, and he will be available for Monday’s fixture. 

🔖 Al-Ettifaq Probable starting lineup (4-2-3-1)

Marek Rodak – Jack Hendry, Al-Khateeb, Joao Costa, Mohammed Yousef,— Alvaro Medran,, Al-Malki – Gray, Vitinho, Rkambi — Wijnaldum 

👤 Head coach: Al-Shehri

Al-Ittihad currently leads in their last 10 head-to-head stats with 5 victories, while Ettifaq plays catch-up with 3 wins and 2 draws. Last time they met, Ittihad won convincingly by a 0-4 scoreline, but we doubt if we would see a similar scoreline on Monday when they meet.

  • In 5 of their last 7 meetings, the bet on a total of over 2.5 goals has won, and this option is offered on the 1xBet bookmaker website for odds of 1.41 odds;
  • In 6 of the last 8 meetings between Al-Ittihad and Al-Fateh, the bet on a total of over 4.5 cards has won.
  • Ittihad won their last meeting, and this option for Al-Ittihad to win is offered on Betway bookmaker website for odds of 1.37;

Ittihad’s 10-game unbeaten run finally came to an end at the hands of Fateh last week, and they'll still be beating themselves up for suffering such a heavy blow against an almost relegated Fateh side. Al-Ittihad is fully aware that all they require at this point is consistency across all pending league games to be able to finish as Champions of the Saudi Pro League this season, and the defeat last week didn’t say much to their burning desire for a league title. As such, I believe Ittihad will not suffer a second consecutive league defeat and they should get a minimum of a win or a draw in this encounter on Monday. 

 

Our match prediction: is a total of over 1.5 goals in the second half for a coefficient of 1.71 in the 1xBet bookmaker.

Our betting tip on the match: is a win and a total of over 2.5 goals for Ittihad for a coefficient of 1.83 in the Betway bookmaker.

Lastly: A total of over 1.5 goals in the second half for 1.71 odds in the 1xBet bookmaker.
