Al-Ittihad seeks to restore its balance when it faces its host, Al-Akhdood, at the Prince Hathloul bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium in Najran, at the opening of the sixth round of the Saudi Roshan League, on Thursday.
The two teams previously met in the Crown Prince Cup in 2004, which ended with Al-Ittihad winning 3-0.
After scoring 4 consecutive victories without conceding a single goal, Al-Ittihad fell to its guest Al-Hilal in the El Clásico match 4-3.
The defending champion relies on a group of distinguished names, such as the French Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante, the Brazilians Fabinho and Romarinho, the Moroccan Abdel Razzaq Hamdallah and the Portuguese Jota.
Al-Ittihad ranks third with 12 points, equally with Al-Ahly, which ranks fourth on goal difference.
Attention is drawn to King Abdullah Sports City Stadium, which will host the match between Al-Ahly Al-Jarahi and its guest Al-Taawoun on Saturday.
Al-Taawoun presented excellent levels this season, enabling it to achieve 4 consecutive victories, while Al-Ahly, which included Algerian international Riyad Mahrez, suffered a heavy loss against Al-Fateh (1-5) after 4 consecutive victories.
