Al Ahli
- Al Ahli have won two of their last three home games (W2, L1).
- Matthias Jaissle’s Al Ahli are a high-octane, pressing side, playing an aggressive high-tempo system with fullbacks pushing forward and players making runs in behind.
-
Recent stats:
- The hosts have been in mixed form of late, with two wins, a draw and two defeats in their last five in all competitions, but they have won three and lost only one of their four home games in the AFC Champions League this season.
Al Duhail
- Al Duhail have lost all four of their away games in the AFC Champions League 2025/2026.
- Djamel Belmadi’s Al Duhail take a very different approach to their opponents, preferring a disciplined and compact structure in a mid-block with players pressing selectively.
-
Recent stats:
- Al Duhail have also been in good form of late, winning three and losing only two of their last five, but they have lost all of their road games in this competition.
Head-to-Head
These two teams met in the AFC Champions League six months ago and it finished 2-2 in what was an end-to-end game that these clubs are likely to produce again on Monday.
Betting Insights
- Al Duhail are making the trip to Jeddah as 6.29 underdogs against the hosts, who are 1.35 favorites for Monday’s clash in Saudi Arabia.
- Over 2.5 goals is favored at 1.44.
Prediction
- This looks like a clash of styles that could produce plenty of goals with Al Duhail not having the quality to control the game and Al Ahli more than capable of matching them in terms of intensity.
- They have won two and lost one of their last three away in all competitions, but this trip will be more difficult and we’re supporting Al Ahli to win a game that should feature several goals in the final third.
