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

The visitors are two points behind the league leaders.

Al Hilal will visit the Al Jouf University Sports Stadium to lock horns with Al Orobah on matchday 14 of the Saudi Pro League. The visitors are currently placed second in the league with 34 points from their opening 13 matches. With 11 wins, one draw, and one loss to their name, Al Hilal have been in excellent form. However, they still trail Karim Benzema’s Al Ittihad by two points.

Al Orobah on the other hand find themselves in the thirteenth spot in the Saudi Pro League. They suffered four losses in their final five league games leading up to the winter break. Al Orobah have conceded 25 goals in just 13 league fixtures. This defensive frailty is a major factor behind them accumulating just 13 points so far this season.

Players to watch out for:

Cristian Tello (Al-Orobah)

The former FC Barcelona winger has already scored four goals for Al-Orobah this season. He has scored two goals in his last five appearances. The Spaniard will be a constant threat on the left-hand side. Al-Orobah will be hoping that he will showcase his quality against the mighty visiting team.

Malcom (Al-Hilal)

The Brazilian attacker has been very consistent since his move to Saudi Pro League. He is very versatile and can operate both as a right winger and an attacking midfielder. He has an excellent passing range and can unlock any defense. Malcom has scored one goal and has provided three assists in his previous five games.
