Al-Ahly’s first football team welcomes its guest, Al-Fateh, on Saturday, with a desire to take revenge for the harshest defeat it suffered this season.
On the other hand, the Al-Ahsa team is looking to combine for the first time a two-legged victory over Al-Ahlawyin in the professional league.
Six months ago, the team, coached by Croatian Slaven Bilic, stunned its guest coming from Jeddah, sweeping it 5-1, inflicting its first loss of the current season.
Al-Fateh defeated Al-Ahly seven times in the league, which began in 2008, not including twice during the same season.
Historically in the competition, Al-Ahly is superior to Al-Fateh, and has 15 victories in 27 confrontations between them.
The players of German coach Matthias Jaisse enter the 22nd round with 43 points, putting them in third place, while the visitors are in seventh place, with 30 points.
