Al Riyadh vs Al Ahli Betting Tips - Over 2.5 Goals/BTTS
Al Riyadh and Al Ahli meet on Monday with both sides looking to bounce back from recent defeats in the Saudi League.
The hosts return to action having now lost three of their last four games after a 3:2 defeat against Al Taawoun earlier this week. Down to ninth in the division, the managerless home side have lost six and won just one of their last nine Saudi League encounters, leading to the dismissal of French boss Sabri Lamouchi.
High-scoring outcomes have been frequent for the home side this season. Six of their last seven games finished with BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored, including each of their last three home fixtures, and we could see more goals in Monday's matchup.
Al Ahli make the trip to the Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium also looking to bounce back from recent Saudi League disappointments. Matthias Jaissleis's side fell to a surprise 3:1 home reversal against AL Ettifaq in their most recent outing, and have now lost two of their last three matches. Al Ahli had won seven successive Saudi League games in the Spring before their recent setbacks.
Like the home side, the visitors have seen several high-scoring outcomes in recent Saudi League matches. All but one of their last seven games with BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored.
Al Riyadh claimed a 2:1 win when these sides last met at this venue, while Al Ahli scored a 5:0 win in the reverse fixture earlier this season. Considering both sides' recent numbers, another high-scoring encounter seems likely on Monday.
Over 2.5 goals is my best bet, with BTTS also likely to land at the Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium.
