Al-Riyadh's performance has been inconsistent, with the team struggling in the Saudi Professional League. They currently hold a low ranking, having only secured 8 points, and a goal difference of -9, indicating weaker overall competitiveness. Their home record is slightly better than their away form. In their last 6 matches at home, they have managed only 1 win, 2 draws, and 3 losses, a performance that needs improvement. Al-Ettifaq, on the other hand, appears to be in steadier form recently. The team boasts a win rate of 33.3%, placing them above Al-Riyadh in the standings, which suggests a degree of competitive edge. They have a potent attacking force but show vulnerabilities in defence, having conceded 13 goals in their last 6 matches, highlighting issues with their defensive solidity. Their performance in away games against strong opponents remains to be seen. Al-Riyadh's recent form is disappointing. Over their last ten matches, they have won only 3, drawn 2, and lost 5, with a win rate of just 30%. While 40% of their matches have seen over 2.5 goals, this does not guarantee consistent attacking form. Their cup match against Al-Fateh saw them fail to score, pointing to tactical issues. In their recent match against Al-Jabalain, they led 2-0 in the first half but conceded and lost 2-1. Al-Ettifaq has a similar recent record with 3 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses in their last ten matches, indicating similar stability. Their matches have seen over 2.5 goals 77.7% of the time, suggesting a stronger attacking capability. Recommendation: Al-Riyadh +0.25
