Al-Fayha and Al Hazem meet in Majmaah on Thursday in a game that feels closer than the table might first suggest. Only one place separate them, and the points gap is narrow too. The Orange sit 10th with 11 points from nine matches, while Al Hazem are just behind in 12th on nine points. You could argue this is the kind of fixture that shapes the middle of the table early on. Below, I’ll go through recent form, team news, and a few betting angles worth keeping in mind.

Al-Fayha
Pro League
These two sides are pretty familiar with each other by now, having met eight times since 2018. Al-Fayha have come out on top more often, winning four of those games but there is room for improvements in defence as they managed a clean sheet only once. Al Hazem snatched two wins themselves, and the other two ended in draws. The average goal tally per game was 2.60.
Al-Fayha team overview
Al-Fayha’s season so far has been a bit uneven. Three wins from nine is not spectacular, yet sitting 10th feels respectable when you remember how close they finished to the drop last season.
The Orange come into Thursday’s match off a 3-2 defeat away at Al Ettifaq, a result that left them with just one win in their last five outings. That said, Pedro Emanuel will probably point to their home form for encouragement, with only one loss in the last four league games at this stadium.
There are problems, though. Alfa Semedo, Fashion Sakala, and Silvère Ganvoula are all away on AFCON duty, which strips a lot of experience and attacking threat from the squad. In their absence, more responsibility falls on Jason, who has been involved in five goals already this season.

Al Hazem team overview
Al Hazem are doing reasonably well for a newly promoted side, especially considering there are still four points between them and the bottom three.
Their most recent result will have lifted spirits. Coming from behind to beat Al Kholood 2-1 ended a four-game winless run, and that kind of response matters.
Jalal Qaderi’s side have also looked decent on the road lately, with two away wins from their last three and no defeats in that stretch.
Like Al-Fayha, Al Hazem are dealing with AFCON absences. Goalkeeper Bruno Varela is away with Cape Verde, while Elias Mokwana has been called up as well. Losing Mokwana hurts more, if I am honest. He has played every league game so far and chipped in with a goal and an assist.

Prediction
This one looks like it could be a pretty tight game. Al-Fayha are okay at home but nothing too scary, while Al Hazem can be tricky for mid-table teams to break down. Both sides are missing a few key players because of AFCON, so the firepower might be a bit muted. With Al-Fayha hardly ever hitting high-scoring games at home and Al Hazem struggling up front, a 1-1 draw seems about right.
Three reasons this game could stay under 2.5 goals
- Only one of Al-Fayha’s last six home games has seen more than two goals.
- Al Hazem have struggled to score, failing to find the net in four of their last ten matches.
- Three of the last four encounters between Al-Fayha and Al Hazem finished with under 2.5 goals.
Main prediction -
Under 2.5 goals
