Recap
It looks like Al Feiha is chasing something more than a „miracle” again this year in order to maintain the achievements in the Kings Cup. However, they showed character in the previous round and beat Al Khaleej with a 3:1. On Thursday, they „paid” for the bad start in the away match against Al-Shabab, losing by 3:2. Until the 39th minute, they found themselves with three goals on their back. Today key midfielder Al Zaqan (12/0) is out of the squad. The King’s Cup is among Al Ittihad’s main goals. In the previous round, Nuno Espirito Santo team lined up the best possible lineup and needed the penalty shootout to qualify, against Al-Shabab. However, their task to win the trophy remains difficult, as if they qualify to the 1/2 finals, they will probably play with Al Hilal. Everyone’s spirits are high after a 1:0 win over Al Nassr, taking the 1st place on the standings after six whole months. They are in superb form with 9 wins and 1 draw in the last 10 games, and will give their best to qualify to the 1/2 finals.
