Al-Hazem
In their last outing, Al-Hazem suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat against Al-Shabab. This result extended their winless streak to four matches (2 draws, 2 losses). The team has struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just two goals in their last four games. Al-Hazem currently sits near the bottom of the table and will be eager to secure their first win of the season to boost their standings.

Al-Fateh
Al-Fateh is coming off a commanding 3-0 victory against Al-Raed in their previous match. This win marked their second consecutive triumph, helping them climb the table. The team has shown impressive form, scoring five goals in their last two matches while keeping clean sheets in both. Al-Fateh is currently in the upper half of the standings and aims to continue their winning streak.
- The team has not lost in regular time in their last 4 away matches (2 wins, 2 draws).

Al-Hazem vs. Al-Fateh: Match Prediction
Al-Hazem has struggled to assert themselves in recent games, especially in front of their home crowd. Their defensive approach has kept scores low, but they have failed to capitalize on offensive opportunities. Meanwhile, Al-Fateh has been in fine form, particularly in their attacking prowess, and will look to exploit Al-Hazem's vulnerabilities. Considering both teams' current form, my prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
