Game Prediction
Pro League in Saudi Arabia has gradually overcome its challenges. At the end of the month, matches for the 19th round are already taking place, and on Thursday, Al-Riyadh will host Damac on their home turf. Both teams need points - who will be able to secure them? The site's audience has been offered a forecast for this match on December 28, 2023.
Al-Riyadh looks impressive for a newcomer.
The "Red and Blacks" have a glorious history, and in the 90s, they were one of the strongest local teams. However, at the moment, it's a club that only returned to the elite division of Saudi Arabia in 2023, finishing fourth and returning through playoff matches. They started with a victory over Al Wahda, followed by a draw on Damac's field. However, they then suffered five consecutive defeats, with sporadic successes mixed with new losses. After losing to Al Wahda in Mecca in the last round, the club is back in the relegation zone. However, they have the same 16 points as Al Raed, who is fifteenth.
Damac has picked up momentum towards the end of the calendar year.
The "Knights of the South" had not shown anything significant throughout their history until last year when they crossed the half-century mark. They climbed out of the First Division in 2019 and finished eighth in the last season, a typical mid-table team with no special ambitions. However, Nkoudou has changed things - the midfielder, who moved from Besiktas, has already scored a dozen goals. He has helped the team gain momentum and rise to the upper part of the table, overcoming a poor start (7 rounds without a win). Since the end of November, they have had only victories, including a 3-0 triumph over Al Taawon in the last round. This marks their fifth consecutive win and eighth match without defeat in the championship. With 30 points, they are currently fifth in the current standings.
