Al Feiha vs Al Hilal Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Al Burtuqali will take on the Blue Waves in Matchday 24 of the Saudi Pro League
Al Feiha will look to improve their position on the points table when they lock horns against Al Hilal. Al Feiha does have the quality to hurt the Blue Waves but they are not in good form and are constantly dropping points in their last few games. In 23 games they have won four games, drawn 10 and lost nine games, with 22 points on the table, they are 14th in the league. If they continue to perform like this, they will fall into the relegation zone for sure. Previously, they defeated Al Hilal some years ago, and to repeat the same, they must be at their best.
Despite being second in the table, Al Hilal will not be happy at all, as they are still six points behind their arch-rival Al Ittihad. A few days ago, they suffered a humiliating defeat against Al Ittihad, and from then on, they have looked a bit shaky. Hilal also lost to Al Ahli by 2-3 in their last game in the Saudi Pro League and surely they will look to bounce back and get three points to shorten the gap at the top. Even though Hilal are a much better side, they can’t afford to underestimate the home team at all. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Players to Watch
Otabek Shukurov (Al Feiha)
The Uzbek international has played in many different countries and has a lot of experience in him. He is someone who does not communicate a lot on the pitch, but still he is able to do his job very well. Physically he is strong and does not get bullied by defenders.
This is his first season with the Saudi outfit and he has been a key player for them. Even though he is not a goalscorer or an assist provider, but he is someone who can control the game very well. Till now he has played 18 games for them but has got seven yellow cards, he needs to be a bit disciplined on the pitch for sure.
Marcos Leonardo (Al Hilal)
In possession, he’s tidy, doesn’t overdo things and generally looks to keep it simple, releasing it early in order to move into a better-attacking position closer to goal. Off the ball he’s a proficient presser and aggressive when needed, but he hasn’t functioned properly in a high press.
He is able to beat his marker by using body feints and by dribbling. His final third movement is very lethal as most of the time he finds himself in an open space to exploit. In the absence of Mitrovic, he always does his job as the striker. In 19 games, he has scored 16 goals and provided two assists
