Al Hilal vs Al Akhdoud Prediction
Al Hilal are unbeaten in the league this season and could close out the title with just two more wins. They are also still alive in the Super Cup and the AFC Champions League. Hence, they will look to bury the league title quickly.
Al Akhdoud, meanwhile, are at the stage of the season where every point is crucial for their survival. They have lost four of their last five games, drawing the other. It’ll be tough for them to challenge Al Hilal.
