Al-Najma

LLWLLL 📉

After a loss in their previous game against Al-Okhdood in Professional League competition, Al-Najma and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

In that game, Al-Najma had 64% possession and 16 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Al-Najma was Lázaro (39'). At the other end, Al-Okhdood got 5 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. Christian Bassogog (64') and Tokmac Nguen (90') scored for Al-Okhdood.

It is worth noting that Al-Najma have suffered from a lack of goals over their previous 6 encounters, contributing the unsatisfactory return of just 4. In those fixtures, Al-Najma have also seen the overall goal aggregate against them equal 17. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this match, of course.

✨ Prediction

Our thinking is that Al-Hilal will probably be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.

In contrast, Al-Najma are also probably going to find it difficult to score although we do think it’s probable that they will be scoring.

We reckon that it will be a controlled 3-1 victory for Al-Hilal when all’s said and done.
