Thursday evening sees Damac host Al Okhdood in the Saudi Professional League. Damac, based in Abha in the Asir region and Al Okhdood also from Abha are both from southern Saudi Arabia, creating a regional rivalry of sorts. Both clubs compete in the middle section of the Saudi Pro League without the global profiles of the Riyadh clubs but with genuine domestic significance.
Predictions & Tips
Form Guide
Damac
DWWLD
Damac have been a mid-table Saudi Pro League presence and their recent run of form highlights the inconsistencies that has plagued their campaign in terms of performances. The hosts’ brief resurgence which had them secure successive victories over Al Riyadh (3-0) and Al Najma (3-1) has now met its natural conclusion. Their past two games in the league has seen defeat against a superior Al Ahli side (3-0) and a stalemate with Al Qadsiah (1-1) most recently. At home, Damac have shown they can secure points against comparable opposition.
Al Okhdood
WLLWL
Al Okhdood, one of the Saudi league's smaller clubs have struggled to string together impressive results and consequently points for the bulk of this campaign. The visitors’ find themselves entrenched within relegation concerns in 17th place and in the drop zone. Their 28 encounters contested has only seen them pick up a miserly 16 points tally. Their most recent result saw them fall to two unreplied goals against runaway league leaders Al Nassr. Away at Damac who have been more competitive at home, represents a challenging Thursday assignment.
Prediction
Damac's home advantage and their superior recent form gives them the lean as moderate favourites in this southern Saudi derby.
