Al Akhdoud vs Al Hilal Prediction and Betting Tips | 7th October 2023

High-flying Al Hilal visit the Prince Hathloul bin Abdul Aziz Sports City Stadium on Saturday to face Al Akhdoud in the Saudi Pro League, hoping to continue their unbeaten start.

With six wins and two draws from their opening eight games, Al Hilal have started the 2023-24 campaign on a resounding note and sit at the top of the table with 20 points.

In fact, the Blue Waves are the only team still unbeaten in the competition this season.

Their last three games in all competitions have ended in wins too. Jorge Jesus' side beat Al Jabalain and Nassaji Mazandaran in the King Cup of Champions and the AFC Champions League respectively, interspersed between what was a 2-0 defeat of Al-Shabab in the league.

Al Hilal will be eager to continue their undefeated streak and should be confident of their chances against a struggling side like Al Akhdoud, who have accrued only seven points from eight games.

The southern outfit picked up only their second win of the top-flight season last weekend, beating Al-Raed in a late 2-1 victory. Andrei Burca scored the winning goal from the penalty spot in the 83rd minute as Al Akhdoud climbed up to 13th position in the standings.
