Al-Fateh and Al-Riyadh meet in Round 15 of the Saudi Pro League.

The recent head-to-head record between these two clubs suggests a balanced competitive history. Across the last five meetings in all competitions, both Al-Fateh and Al-Riyadh have recorded one win each, with three draws completing the sample.
Al-Fateh team overview
Al-Fateh head into this fixture with a moderate league campaign and improved recent form. Over their 13 Saudi Pro League matches, they have registered 5 wins, 2 draws, and 6 defeats, with 15 goals scored and 22 conceded. At home, their results have been more competitive, reflecting three home wins and a slightly more potent attacking threat. Jose Manuel Gomes’ men have recorded back-to-back wins at the Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Stadium and will be full of confidence to make it three in a row on Tuesday.
Injury news for Al-Fateh has been limited in external previews, but given their recent rotation and squad usage, fitness and discipline - especially following a competitive cup tie in late October - could influence selection decisions.

Al-Riyadh team overview
Al-Riyadh enter this match under significant pressure. They sit at 15th place with only 2 wins, 3 draws, and 8 losses from 12 matches, scoring just 11 goals while conceding a whopping 27 (2.25 per match). The club has endured a prolonged slump, with no away wins this season and a winless streak extending across six games.
Their only reliable offensive contributor remains Mamadou Sylla Diallo, the club’s current top scorer with 6 goals, yet Al-Riyadh’s broader scoring rate remains well below league average.
Ongoing injury or suspension concerns have not been widely reported in preview data; however, the squad’s thin margins and tactical frailties suggest that any absences could make the task of coming away with at least a point on Tuesday even more difficult.

Prediction
From a statistical perspective, Al-Fateh enter this fixture as clear favourites. They are evidently stronger in both form and recent scoring output, and their head-to-head record shows a slight edge, further reinforced by superior home metrics. Al-Riyadh’s defensive struggles and poor away record project a challenging day for the visitors.
Prediction: Al-Fateh to Win.
Three reasons we expect Al-Fateh to Win
- Al-Riyadh are still winless away from home this season.
- Al-Fateh have recorded back-to-back home league wins.
- Al-Fateh have embarked on a four-game winning streak in the league.
