Al Ittihad will be without Madallah Al-Olayan on Tuesday after he was sent off in the 12th minute at the weekend, while Omar Hawsawi and Muhannad Al-Shanqeeti were both out with unknown injuries.
Goalkeeper Abdullah Al-Jadaani is not expected to recover from a cruciate ligament tear until late January, meaning Abdullah Al-Mayouf will likely start in goal for this game.
