We said: Al Ettifaq 2-0 Abha

Al Ettifaq have struggled to perform in front of their own fans this season, but they have played to a higher standard since returning to action in recent weeks. However, Abha will have gained confidence from their victory last weekend. We expect the hosts to have too much individual quality for the visitors to deal with, and Gerrard's side could find themselves a few places higher in the table by recording another victory and clean sheet.
