Damac vs Al Ahli Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The visitors came out on top in two of their last three league outings against Damac.

Damac are all set to host Al Ahli on matchday 21 of the Saudi Pro League 2024-25 fixture. The hosts are in 11th place and have won six games out of 20 league matches. The visitors have come up with decent performances and are in the fifth spot in the league table having played the same number of matches.

Damac were held to a goalless draw in their last Saudi Pro League match against Al Akhdoud. It was a lacklustre performance by Damac in all parts of the field but they still managed to draw the game with a decent defensive play. They have 24 points on the table and have only been able to win one of their last five league games.

Al Ahli are a strong side but will be slightly low on confidence as Al Nassr defeated them in the last league game. At this point, it is almost next to impossible for them to win the league title this season.

Kick-off:

• Location: Abha, Saudi Arabia
• Stadium: Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium
• Date: Friday, February 21
• Kick-off Time: 19:50 IST/ 14:20 GMT/ 09:20 ET/ 06:20 PT
• Referee: TBD
• VAR: In use

Form:

Damac: L-W-D-D-D

Al Ahli: W-W-W-L-W

Players to Watch

Georges-Kevin N’Koudou (Damac)

The Cameroon national football team winger will yet again have a crucial role to play. Georges-Kevin N’Koudou has not scored a goal in his last two league games for Damac. He will be looking to step up the attack by building up plays with his fellow teammates.

Ivan Toney (Al Ahli)

The English forward scored a goal against Al Nassr which will keep him confident. He is in decent form. Ivan Toney has scored 10 goals in 17 Saudi Pro League matches this season.

The visitors will be relying on Toney to score a goal or two which will surely put them in control of the match. With players like Riyad Mahrez and Roberto Firmino on his side, he should not have much problem finding spaces in the opponent’s defence.
