Al Ittihad secured a 3-1 victory over Al Raed in their Saudi Pro League match at the King Abdullah Sport City Stadium. Al Raed, playing in a 4-1-4-1 formation, took an early lead in the 9th minute with a goal from Oumar Gonzalez. However, Al Ittihad, utilizing a 4-2-3-1 setup, responded strongly with goals from Steven Bergwijn in the 21st minute, Danilo Pereira in the 40th minute, and Abdulrahman Al-Obud shortly after halftime in the 47th minute.
Al Ittihad dominated possession with 64.5% compared to Al Raed's 35.5%. They also had a significantly higher number of shots, registering 15 in total with 6 on target, while Al Raed only managed 8 shots with 3 on target. Both teams committed a similar number of fouls, with Al Ittihad committing 16 and Al Raed 13, and both received two yellow cards each. The AI's pre-game prediction of an Al Ittihad win was accurate. The AI model did not expect a balanced game, and Al Ittihad's higher team rate (0.699) compared to Al Raed's (0.338) suggested a likely victory for the away side.
Al Raed has been struggling recently, losing four of their last five matches, including a heavy defeat against Al Hilal. Their upcoming match against Al Okhdood, who have also been in poor form recently suffering a 0-9 defeat to Al Nassr, presents an opportunity to bounce back, although recent head-to-head records suggest Al Okhdood will be a difficult side to beat. Al Ittihad, on the other hand, is in good form, having won four of their last five matches. Their next game is against Al Shabab, and based on recent form, Al Ittihad will be confident of securing another victory.
In previous head-to-head encounters, Al Ittihad has had the upper hand, winning the most recent match 4-1 in January 2025. However, Al Raed did manage a 3-1 victory against Al Ittihad in December 2023. Al Ittihad's recent form and dominance in possession and shots on goal proved decisive in this encounter, securing a comfortable victory and reinforcing their position in the Saudi Pro League. Al Raed, struggling with consistency, will need to address their defensive vulnerabilities to improve their results in upcoming fixtures.

The King Abdullah Sport City Stadium in Buraidah is set to host a Saudi Pro League clash on May 15, 2025, between Al Raed and Al Ittihad. AI algorithms predict an Al Ittihad victory, assigning them a 51.0% win probability compared to Al Raed's 25.5%. The draw probability stands at 23.6%. Al Ittihad enters the match as favorites, reflected in their higher team rate of 0.699 against Al Raed's 0.338.
Al Ittihad's recent form has been strong, with 4 victories in their last 5 matches, including a 3-2 win against Al Nassr. Their attacking prowess, led by stars like Karim Benzema, who continues to find the net with impressive consistency, and the dynamic Romarinho, makes them a constant threat. In contrast, Al Raed has struggled, losing most of their recent games. However, their recent 4-0 victory against Al Orobah proves they have the potential to surprise. Historical data also favors Al Ittihad, as seen in the head-to-head results where they won the majority of their matches. While football is unpredictable, the AI leans heavily towards an Al Ittihad triumph.
