Prediction Al Ettifaq - Al Khaleej today 21:55 10/10/2026.

Al Ettifaq has a stable goal-scoring ability with an average of 1.5 goals per game, as demonstrated by impressive victories such as 4-2 against Al Riyadh and 1-0 against Al Fateh.

The starting lineup has remained stable thanks to the consistent presence of key players such as goalkeeper Turki Ba Al-Jawsh, defender Radhi Al Oteibi and Jack Hendry, as well as midfielder Ondrej Duda and Álvaro Medrán, who plays a key role in the team's playing style.

Al Ettifaq's current ranking at 9th place in the Saudi Professional League after 7 matches shows a balance between wins, draws, and losses, but does not clearly reflect superiority or decline.

The 4-1-4-1 tactical formation is frequently used, providing stability in the playing style but has not demonstrated significant flexibility when facing strong teams like Al Ettifaq.

Al Ettifaq is going through a period of instability with four defeats in their last ten matches, including heavy defeats such as 0-3 against Diraiyah and 1-3 against Eldense, highlighting a lack of focus and composure in crucial matches.

Al Ettifaq's defense tends to concede 1.6 goals per game, with 4 heavy defeats (an average of 2.6 goals per game) and a total of 16 goals conceded, indicating instability in their defensive line.

The absence of Moussa Dembélé, the key scorer (3 goals), has caused the attacking line to lose an important focal point, while the substitutes, such as Rayane Messi and Khalid Al-Ghannam, have not shown equivalent effectiveness.

Al Ettifaq received 16 yellow cards in their last 10 matches (an average of 1.6 cards per game), reflecting a lack of discipline and numerous unnecessary fouls, especially in major matches.

Anthony Moris, the key goalkeeper of Al Khaleej, has been playing steadily for 630 consecutive minutes and is the sole pillar in the goal, demonstrating effective ability to relieve pressure.

Some key players such as Mohammed Al-Khabrani (defender) and Omar Mascarell (midfielder) have maintained stability in the last 7 matches, playing an important role in every game

Al Khaleej has flexibly applied four different tactical schemes (4-3-3, 4-1-4-1, 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2) in their last 10 matches, demonstrating flexibility in their approach to the game.

Al Khaleej has 3 clean sheets in the last 10 matches, although it is not enough to compensate for the number of matches lost with many goals.

Al Khaleej has not won any of their last 10 matches, with a win/draw/loss ratio of 0%/60%/40%, indicating a lack of stability and poor competitiveness.

The goal-scoring efficiency is only 0.6 goals per game and the defense concedes an average of 1.8 goals per game, reflecting the weakness in both attacking and defensive aspects.

The average number of yellow cards received is 1.8 per game, showing poor match discipline and directly affecting the playing style and ability to control the game.

The injury of Dimitrios Kourbelis (midfielder) has caused him to miss 16 matches, creating a large gap in the central midfielder position, where Al Khaleej lacks a player capable of controlling the ball and creating opportunities.
