Will Al-Shahrani Break His Curse Against Al-Ittihad?

Sunday 20-04-2025
Al-Ettifaq is preparing to face Al-Ittihad in a decisive match in the 29th round of the Roshan League, which will take place next Monday evening.

Al-Ettifaq is currently in seventh place with 40 points, while Al-Ittihad is at the top of the standings with 65 points.

The upcoming match between the two teams will be a special challenge for the national coach Saad Al-Shahrani, who has never won against Al-Ittihad. Despite having coached Al-Ettifaq twice before, he lost both matches, one in the Roshan League and the other in the King's Cup.

The history of Al-Shahrani's encounters with Al-Ittihad includes:

August 6, 2018: Al-Ettifaq 2-4 Al-Ittihad in the Roshan League.

January 19, 2018: Al-Ettifaq 1-2 Al-Ittihad in the King's Cup.

Since taking over the coaching role at Al-Ettifaq following English coach Steven Gerrard, he has led the team in 11 league matches, achieving 6 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses.

Al-Shahrani's history with Al-Ittihad may motivate him to deliver a better performance, so will things change this time? When can Al-Ettifaq achieve its first win with Al-Shahrani against Al-Ittihad?
