Team analysis: Raed
Al-Raed comes into this match after a 1-0 defeat against Damac Stadium, marking their third consecutive loss in this competition. With relegation to the Second Saudi Division already confirmed, the team managed by Kresimir Rezic aims to conclude the season with some pride. The home side will likely adopt their usual 4-3-3 formation, focusing on the flanks, where Yousri Bouzok and Zakaria Hawsawi typically generate attacking opportunities. Up front, Karim El Berkaoui will serve as the focal point of the attack, being the main hope for goals. Hamad Al-Jayzani will miss this match due to suspension.

The Ittihad team enters this motivated match after a 3-0 victory over Al-Fayha, marking their third consecutive win in this competition. The goals came from Karim Benzema (2) and an own goal from Mohammed Al-Baqawi. A further win will mathematically secure the title of Saudi champions, adding even greater significance to this fixture. Ittihad is expected to line up in their familiar 4-3-3 formation, featuring a formidable attacking trio: Karim Benzema, Steven Bergwijn, and Moussa Diaby, who promise to be a constant threat to the opposition’s defence. In midfield, Houssem Aouar will take on the role of playmaker, orchestrating the tempo and connecting the team’s sectors. Saleh Al-Shehri will be absent from this match due to suspension.
