What to expect
We expect about 0.9 goals from Al-Faisaly and 1.7 from Al Ittihad, so Al Ittihad come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.6 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Al-Faisaly come into this on two straight draws. Al Ittihad come into this on two straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Al Ittihad to win. Al Ittihad shade this one on the numbers (xG 0.9-1.7), and we make them about 56% to win. They look the better bet on the road, and backing them outright is the straightforward way in.
We put the chance of that landing at about 55 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.81, which works out at about 55 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
