Al Khalidiyah vs Al Riffa Prediction: An open encounter for the two teams to grab

Bahrain National Stadium will be the venue for the Bahrain Premier League encounter between Al Khalidiyah and Al Riffa. The two teams started their season with strong results. How will this e꧙ncounter unfold?

Al Khalidiyah

Al Khalidiyah had a perfect start to the season, thanks to a 0-5 road win for Manama Club. In that encounter, Al Khalidiyah had a 0-1 win at halftime, thanks to Mahdi Abduljabbar’s strike. In the meantime, a better second-half performance saw this team score four goals, with Igor Torres, Sidena Dabo, Mahdi Humaidaan, and Gleison Moreira finding the back of the net. Heading into this game, Al Khalidiyah sits in third spot in the standings. 

Al Riffa

Al Riffa opened their season with a 3-0 win over Al Najma and will now look to keep things going. In that game, Samy Frioui’s 44th-minute strike gave Al Riffa the lead before the break. However, Vargas scored twice in the second half, and his goals were enough to seal Al Riffa's maximum points. In the meantime, Al Riffa had two wins, two losses, and one draw in their last five matches. 

Expert Betting Tips

I expect a lot of tough and strong play from the two teams working hard to continue their strong play. While their last meeting ended in a 1-1 draw, Al Riffa has always been the better team here. In the meantime, I think it is difficult to pick a winner in this encounter, but I do trust the two teams' high offensive game, with a draw being the best result.
