Al-Khaleej
In their last outing, Al-Khaleej managed a 1-1 draw away at Al-Fateh. The team has shown resilience in recent matches, with a solid defensive setup, allowing them to remain unbeaten in their last three home games (2 wins, 1 draw).

Damac
Damac comes into this match following a 2-0 victory at home against Al-Adalah. This win ended a four-match winless streak, providing a much-needed boost in confidence. However, Damac has struggled on the road, failing to win any of their last five away fixtures (2 draws, 3 losses).

Al-Khaleej vs. Damac: Match Prediction
Al-Khaleej has been solid at home, relying on a strong defensive strategy to secure points. Their ability to limit opponents' scoring chances has been key to their recent success. Meanwhile, Damac has struggled on the road, and their inconsistency away from home could be a significant factor in this matchup.
Considering all factors, this match is expected to be closely contested with limited scoring opportunities. My prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
