Al-Feiha
- Al-Feiha sit 10th in the table with 30 points from 25 games in the 2025-2026 season of the Profesional League, while Al-Ettifaq Dammam are in seventh spot with 39 points from the same number of matches.
- Al-Feiha head into this game fresh from a huge 5-0 away win over Al Akhdoud just two days ago and following a 3-1 home defeat to Al Nassr FC in the last game before the international break.
- Since December 2024, Pedro Emanuel has developed a very compact, defence-first system with a solid 3-5-2, sitting deep, looking to counterattack and counterpress quickly or hit the team on the counterattack.
- In Fashion Sakala they have their main man, the attacker has 11 goals in 23 league games and has scored four of Al-Feiha’s last 10 goals.
Al-Ettifaq Dammam
- Al-Ettifaq Dammam have been in poor form, winning one, drawing one and losing three of their last five.
- Saad Al-Shehri’s team are much more possession-oriented and prefer to control the game in the midfield to dictate the play and create chances.
- It’s a 4-2-3-1 formation, which is designed to keep the ball in the opposition’s half and create numerical superiority in the attacking third.
- They have a capable goalscorer in Georginio Wijnaldum, who has scored 12 in 24 games this season, but they have to be careful, he is their creative spark and has to be involved in the play to make things happen.
- Khalid Al Ghannam has two goals in Al-Ettifaq Dammam’s last five, so he could be a threat to Al-Feiha’s defence.
Head-to-Head
In the last five head-to-head matches, Al-Feiha have won twice, Al-Ettifaq Dammam once, with two draws.

- Odds of 2.16 look good for the home win, while Over 2.5 goals 1.95 and Both Teams to Score - Yes 1.74.
Prediction
- Both teams can score and I expect Over 2.5 goals to be on the cards.
- Al-Feiha are due a home win and I think they can win a high-scoring match against an Al-Ettifaq Dammam team with a leaky defense.
