Al Kholood vs Neom SC prediction 30.10.2025 | Saudi Pro League

Al Kholood return to Saudi Pro League action after a hard-fought 1:0 win against Al-Najma SC in the Kings Cup. After a goalless 90 minutes, Ramiro Enrique's fifth goal of the season secured victory for Des Buckingham's side.

The Pride of Ar Rass have been in excellent form, picking up victories in five of their last six matches played in the past five weeks. Al Kholood claimed wins in both of their first two home Saudi Pro League fixtures, including a thumping 5:1 win, also against Al-Najma.

While in solid form, the hosts have struggled to keep clean sheets this season. Buckingham's men conceded at least one goal in eight successive matches before their King's Cup clean sheet against Al-Najma.

Head coach Buckingham is likely to make one or two alterations to his selection this week. Abdulaziz Al-Aliwa and Muhammad Sawan are among those in contention to earn recalls to the first XI on Thursday. 

The hosts have no reported injury issues this week.

Neom SC make the trip to the King Abdullah Sport City Stadium looking for a first win in three matches after a 1:1 draw with Al-Khaleej last Friday. Luciano Rodríguez's first-half goal ensured a share of the spoils at King Khalid Sport City Stadium.

Competing in the Saudi Pro League for the first time, Christophe Galtier's side have performed well on their debut season, particularly on their travels, picking up victories in both of their last two road games. 

A high-scoring contest could be on the cards at King Abdullah Sport City Stadium. Neom SC have seen BTTS in five of their last six games, while three of their last four matches also finished with over 2.5 goals scored.

Head coach Galtier reported no new injury issues ahead of Thursday's Saudi Pro League fixture. Khalifah Al-Dawsari and Ali Al-Asmari could come into contention should the French boss opt to freshen-up his selection this week.
