Al Ahli finished third in the Saudi Pro League last season, sitting a full division above Al Anwar, boasting quality difference that should translate on the scoreboard. The two meet in the Round of 32 of the King's Cup. And considering Al-Alhi were the tightest defence and 4th-best offense last season, our Al Anwar vs Al Ahli match prediction backs the Royals to win by 2+ goals.
The Royals carry Ivan Toney, Riyad Mahrez, Roberto Firmino and Franck Kessie, effectively aligning a squad that could challenge for the top-flight crown this season. Notably, Al Ahli lifted the AFC Champions League Elite in 2025. They're already off to a good start to the new season with their 1-0 win over new Saudi League members, Al Diriyah on Matchday 1.
Al Anwar, meanwhile, spent last season in the second tier, but also finished 12th of the Saudi First Division. And that only makes the difference in quality only starker. What's more, Anwar conceded 54 goals last season, allowing the 7th-most in their division.
Contrast that with Al Ahli, who not only conceded the fewest goals in the league last season (25 in 34 games), but also kept a staggering 17 clean sheets (the joint-most with champions Al Nassr).

Our AL Anwar vs Al Ahli Prediction
Al Ahli finished third in the Pro League last season with the division's meanest defence that allowed just 25 goals in 34 games. Unsurprisingly, they also boasted the most clean sheets (17), but kept against the teams that will comfortably beat Al Anwar, who finished 12th in the First Division.
The Royals pair that with the fourth-best attack last season (averaged 2.08 goals per game in 34 matches) and a squad of Toney, Mahrez and Firmino. A gap this wide is what a -1 handicap is built for. Hence, our Al Anwar vs Al Ahli match prediction is that Al Ahli wins with -1 handicap.
