East Riffa vs Al Khalidiyah Prediction: Both teams confident of extending their unbeaten run

East Riffa will play Al Khalidiyah at the Bahrain National Stadium in a Bahrain Premier League 🍨encounter. How will this encounter play out between these two teams?

East Riffa

East Riffa settled for a draw last time out against Sitra, a game that ended 1-1. However, that result has extended East Riffa’s unbeaten run to four games, a run of just one win coming against Al-Shabba. However, their encounters against Al-Hidd, Al Riffa, Al-Hala, and Al-Muharraq ended in draws. In the meantime, prior to that win, this team went seven games with a win. Despite those results, East Riffa are still seated in the relegation zone of the standings, and a win will be needed to at least guarantee a chance in this game. 

Al Khalidiyah

Al Khalidiyah were brilliant against Al-Hala last time out in the league, as they secured a 7-0 win. In that game, Al Khalidiyah scored five times at halftime, and they needed just two goals in the second half to settle scores here. Mahdi Abdouljabbar, Dominique Mendy, Gleison Moreria, Dhurghan Ismael, and Israel Abdullatif all scored for this side in that game. Heading into this game, Al Khalidiyah are unbeaten in their last nine matches. However, this side has accumulated 44 points from 21 league games, positioning them top of the Bahrain Premier League standings. 

Expert Betting Tips

Al Khalidiyah should win this game as the better team and💙 the side with the most quality. While East Riffa will look to be a threat, given they will look to keep their r﷽elegation fight on, I still do not see them strong enough to step this visiting Al Khalidiyah. Therefore, I am backing the road team to win. Also, while both teams have been good in attacks, we can expect this game to end with many goals.
