Al-Ettifaq finished seventh last season and still conceded more than they scored. They host an underperforming Al-Riyadh on Friday in Round 1 of the Saudi Pro League. Even against modest visitors, The Commandos are on course to concede, so our Al-Ettifaq FC vs Al-Riyadh SC match prediction backs both teams to score.
The Commandos scored 51 and conceded 55 across 34 games, keeping few clean sheets all season. A side that concedes in most weeks is a poor bet to shut anyone out. Al-Riyadh, for all their struggles, will see openings against a defence this generous.
Al-Riyadh survived in 15th while shipping 63 goals, the third most in the division. That leaky defence should hand the hosts chances of their own at home. The honest caveat is Al-Riyadh's attack, which mustered only 35 all season and drew a blank at Al-Ettifaq last December.
The Saudi Pro League averaged better than three goals a game last season. With one defence conceding 55 and the other 63, clean sheets were scarce on both sides. Goals at each end remain the likelier outcome, even with Al-Riyadh's blunt attack. Cementing our stance is the fact that Riyadh actually beat Ettifaq 3-2 in their last meeting, which happened right here.

Our Al-Ittifaq FC vs Al-Riyadh SC Prediction
Al-Ettifaq scored 51 and conceded 55 last season, keeping clean sheets only rarely, so their games tended to bring goals at both ends. Al-Riyadh arrive with the division's third-leakiest defence, which should let the hosts score at home.
The opposing case is real, as Al-Riyadh managed only 35 all season and failed to score at Al-Ettifaq in December. But against a back line this open, in a league averaging better than three a game, they should find one. Hence, our Al-Ettifaq FC vs Al-Riyadh SC match prediction is BTTS.
