Al Diriyah vs നിയോം എസ്‌സി

Al Diriyah and Neom SC meet on 30 October with the two sides next to each other in the Pro League table. Neom SC are sixth on 16 points from ten games, while Al Diriyah sit seventh, so the winner takes the higher place. Al Diriyah beat Al Riyadh 1-0 this week, Oscar Rodriguez scoring after 13 minutes. Earlier this season they won 3-0 at Al-Ettifaq and 2-1 at Al Fateh, but also lost 3-0 at Al Nassr. Neom SC arrive on a poor run: a 1-0 home defeat to Al-Ettifaq, then another 1-0 loss at Al Nassr on 20 October. They did win 2-0 at Al Hilal in September, and Alexandre Lacazette leads their scoring with five league goals. I found no earlier league meeting between the clubs. Our prediction: 1-1
