Al Riyadh vs Al Taee tips and predictions

Hard to split these two sides in Saudi Professional League battle; deadlock catches the eye

There's not much between Al Riyadh and Al Taee in the Saudi Professional League. The hosts are in 14th place with 25 points, compared to their opponents who are in 17th place on 23 points.

Any result could happen here. The draw is worth a look. With goals being hard to come by in the build up to this one, both of these sides will fancy their chances of keeping a clean sheet and it's certainly not one to get carried away with. That said, the draw is the play from the 1X2.

The two sides have looked weak in attack. Al Riyadh have only scored once in their last 3 starts which doesn't sound good. Al Taee have only scored twice in their last 5 away games.

In previous matches between these sides 5 of the last 11 have ended in a draw.

Most observers believe that both sides can score as they could be well matched. However the odds-against for the No BTTS is actually the standout from that market.

Al Riyadh have drawn 5 of their last 9 matches on their own soil. They drew 1-1 with Abha at home in March. Al Taee have drawn 3 of their last 8 matches. The last time they went the distance was when they shared the spoils with Al Shabab last week and while any draw will do, a scoreline of 0-0 shouldn't be dismissed here. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds. Stalemate beckons after what will probably be a close encounter.
