Saudi Arabia takes on the visitors Moldova at “King Abdullah Sports City” in a friendly clash. The game will be played in Jeddah on Monday, February 26th.
The Saudi Arabians start their preparation to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia and it will be the first match for their A-team this year. In 2017 Saudi Arabia participated in 14 battles, having got six triumphs, two draws and six defeats in them. The side belongs to the top-teams of Asia while on the world’s level it looks quite humble, therefore, last year the Saudi Arabians were beaten by Portugal 0:3, Bulgaria 0:1, Ghana 0:3 and Oman 0:2. With all respect, Saudi Arabia stays at quite moderate football level.

Moldova is the outsider of the European football. The team has not tasted a victory in 10 consecutive fights since the 19th of March 2017. During that period the Moldovans have earned three draws and seven defeats. This year Moldova conducted two clashes, having lost to South Korea 0:1 and deserved 0:0 draw against Azerbaijan. Last time the side scored a goal was on the 11th of June 2017, having failed to reach a goal in six encounters in a row or for 594 minutes of football.
The rivals met only once in their history: on the 24th of May 2014 Moldova thrashed Saudi Arabia with 4:0 scoreline. Revenge may happen in the forthcoming fight as the World Cup participant is obliged to beat the underdog of European football.
Prediction for the match: Saudi Arabia to win.
