In this week 10 match on Dec 26th, Al Batin and Al Raed will play a match in Hafar Al-Batin in a clash of these two closely matched Pro League teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 15 degrees, a perfect day for football. Al Batin is fresh off their 1-3 loss against Al Hilal. Jang Hyun-Soo struck first for Al Hilal in the 48th minute, then Yousef Fawaz tied it up for Al Batin in the 62nd minute. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 2 points in their last 10 matches, while al Raed is fresh off their 1-4 loss against Al Nassr. Alexandru Mitriță scored the first goal for Al Raed in the 28th minute, then Vincent Aboubakar tied it up for Al Nassr in the 5th minute of the first half’s stoppage time on a feed from Abdulelah Al Amri But luckily in the 61st minute, they were able to complete the comback with a goal by Anderson Talisca. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
Júlio Tavares and Karim Berkaoui are the top scorers for Al Raed in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Both Al Shammari and Rakan Al-Shamlan have been the hottest scorers for Al Batin in the last 5 each having scored 2 goals each.
