Al-Raed vs. Al-Khaleej: Match Prediction
Al-Raed has shown resilience at home, even against stronger opponents, and they prefer a defensive approach, aiming for positive results. Meanwhile, Al-Khaleej's away form has been inconsistent, and they have struggled to secure victories on the road. Considering all factors, I do not expect this match to be high-scoring. My prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
