Al Wahda Mecca vs Al Fateh Best odds and tips

Al Wahda Mecca are in 16th place in the Professional League 2024/2025 with 29 points from 30 games, battling near the relegation zone, while Al Fateh are in 11th with 33 points, well clear of the drop. Al Wahda are in much better form than their league position suggests with 3 wins and 2 defeats from their last 5 games, but Daniel Carreno’s side have failed to win any of their last 3 home games against Al Fateh. Al Fateh have been in good form since the appointment of Jose Gomes as coach in December 2024, winning 3 and drawing 2 of their last 5 games, which included away victories over Al Ittihad (2-0) and Al Shabab (3-1).

Al Fateh have won 4 of the last 6 meetings between these clubs, with Al Wahda beating Al Fateh 2-1 in their last head-to-head three months ago in the Professional League. Al Wahda’s last two results have been big away wins at Al-Taawoun (2-0) and Al Akhdoud (2-1), but their 3-2 home defeat to Al Ahli is more relevant to this contest. Al Fateh are unbeaten in their last 3 away games, winning 1 and drawing 2, so the bookmakers have got this game about right with the visitors as 2.20 favourites, Al Wahda 3.10 and the draw 3.50.

Carreno has done a good job since taking over in late November 2024, but Al Wahda have been fragile at home, losing both of their last two games and failing to take a point. Al Fateh have been more balanced since Gomes took charge in December 2024, bringing a more patient, possession-based approach to the team and more creativity. Al Wahda are a counter-attacking team that love to break quickly and get in behind their opponents with good wing play, but they are too easy to break down at home, conceding 2.27 goals per game and 34 in total this season. Al Fateh score 1.20 and concede 2.27 goals per game away from home in the Professional League, which suggests they are open and leaky on their travels.
