Al Riffa vs Manama Club Prediction: Hosts to end their season with a win

Bahrain National Stadium Stadium will host this Bahrain Premier League game between Al Riffa and Manama Club. The road team, Manama Club, won the last meeting of this fixture. Can Al Riffa, at home, win this encounter?

Al Riffa returned to winning ways last time out against Busaiteen, securing a 1-3 win in that game. However, prior encounters to that win saw Al Riffa go four consecutive games with no win. In that run of games, this team lost to Al-Ahli Manama, while they played to draws with East Riffa, Sitra, and Al Khalidiyah in games that ended in identical 1-1 draws. This season, Al Riffa have accumulated 37 points from 21 matches, positioning them 2nd in the standings.

Manama Club were held to a goalless draw the last time out in the league, coming against Al-Hidd. In the meantime, the visiting team's last five games have seen them win two, draw two, and lose one. In their wins, this side defeated Busaiteen and Al-Najma. However, Al-Ahli Manama held the Manama Club at a draw while they lost to Al-Muharraq. Looking at their road record in recent games, Manama Club have a five-game unbeaten record and one loss in as many as ten consecutive games. Manama Club have accumulated 30 points in the league this season from 21 league games, positioning them 5th in the standings. 

Manama Club should be able to score here, looking at their impressive performance on the road. However, Al Riffa are at home, and following a poor season finish, this side will still hope to take maximum points here. Expect this game to be productive offensively while the home team takes maximum points.
