Neom SC vs Al Hazem prediction 28.04.2026 | Saudi Pro League

Neom went into last weekend aiming for a third straight win. The Falcons fell short, losing 2-1 to Al Najma despite having a man advantage for much of the match.

That result probably stung more than usual. Still, Christophe Galtier’s side can look to their home form for some reassurance.

At King Khalid Sport City Stadium, Neom have lost just once in their last five. Three wins and a draw in that run suggest a team that feels comfortable there.

Luciano Rodríguez has scored six league goals and should start again. Moreover, Alaa Hejji is expected to support him up front, offering a bit of balance.

Injuries could play a role, though. Marcin Bulka and Abbas Al-Hassan have both missed the last two games, and this one may come too soon again.

Al Hazem come into this off a comeback win over Al Riyadh. The Determined Ones were a goal down but turned it around to win 2-1, which says something about their mentality.

That result meant back to back wins for the first time since May 2025. You can imagine the dressing room feeling slightly lighter after that.

Away form, though, remains a concern. Jalal Qaderi’s side are winless in seven on the road and have lost the last four, conceding nine goals in that spell.

Yousef Al Shammari made an impact off the bench with the winner last time. Still, Omar Al Somah, as top scorer, is likely to keep his place in attack.

Bruno Varela is ruled out through injury. Aside from that, the squad looks fairly stable, which at least gives Qaderi a few options.
