Head-to-head statistics Al Taawon - Al Ettifaq

Weak attack and defensive problems
Al Taawon's most recent AFC Champions League 2 match saw them win 2-0 away at Al Faisaly 28 October 2026. Both goals came after the break, with the opposition having the better of the shot count - 18 to 12.
Al Taawon have made a poor start to the season and sit 17th in the table with four points, four points adrift of safety. Across ten matches they have won two, drawn three and lost five. Both wins have come in their last five games, which gives some grounds to expect an improvement in results. Their biggest problem, however, remains a very low scoring rate - Al Taawon are averaging just 0.7 goals per game. Defensively they have also been unconvincing, conceding at a rate of 1.6 per match.

Four wins from ten matches, but the attack is inconsistent
Three goals from ten shots: Al Ittifaq won their previous Pro League match 3-0 away at Al Holud 24 October 2026. The hosts had almost twice as many shots (19-10), but Al Ittifaq were more accurate on target - 8 to 5.
Al Ittifaq sit seventh in the table with 18 points and are still pushing for a higher position. The team have been producing reasonably good results, though they continue to lack consistency. In their last ten matches, the visitors have won four, drawn three and lost three. Their scoring record looks balanced, with Al Ittifaq averaging 1.4 goals scored and 1.4 conceded per game. However, the attack has been less effective recently, rarely scoring more than once in a match. That has made even games against weaker opponents difficult.

Match Result Prediction
Al Taawon have gone 13 consecutive Pro League matches without a win. This season they have zero wins in 11 rounds, including zero wins in five home matches. Al Ittifaq away from home have won four times, drawn once and are yet to lose. We're going with Double Chance - X2 (Al Ittifaq) at 1.64*.
Corners Prediction
Al Taawon served fewer than 4.5 corners in 7 of their last 8 matches. At home, however, they served more than 3.5 corners in 8 of their last 9 games - these two trends are compatible with exactly four corners, but they don't give confidence in a lower figure. There are no average corner figures in the available data, so we are working from a limited trend sample. We're going with Al Taawon Team Corners - Under 4.5 at odds of 2.11*.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
The bookmakers make Al Taawon slight favourites, though the hosts' league position raises some doubts. Al Taawon are in real need of a win to close the gap to the safety zone, while Al Ittifaq are equally keen on three points to keep up their challenge for a higher finish. The table motivations on both sides could encourage a more open, attacking game. The editors' main prediction is Total Goals - Over 2.5.
