Al-Hazm vs Al-Fayha: what the match decides

Al-Hazm face Al-Fayha in Round 11 of the Pro League on Thursday 22 October 2026 at Al Hazm Club Stadium. It is a meeting of two sides in the lower half of the 18-team table, separated by two points and four places.

Al-Hazm sit 11th after ten games with two wins, three draws and five defeats, a goal difference of -4 and 9 points. Al-Fayha are 15th with one win, four draws and five defeats, a goal difference of -7 and 7 points. Leaders Al-Hilal Saudi FC have 24, so neither team is looking upwards. The match decides who gains breathing space from the bottom end.

Our lean is a narrow home edge in a low-scoring game, and the sections below explain why.

Al-Hazm and Al-Fayha recent form

Al-Hazm have won one, drawn one and lost three of their last five, scoring 5 and conceding 8 (1.0 scored and 1.6 conceded per game). They kept one clean sheet and failed to score once. The run began with a 1-0 home win over Al Taawon and has since brought a 1-3 loss at Al-Ahli Jeddah, a 1-1 draw with NEOM, a 2-3 home defeat to Al-Fateh and a 0-1 loss at Al-Hilal Saudi FC.

At home, Al-Hazm have taken one win, one draw and one defeat in their last three, scoring 4 and conceding 4 (1.33 for and against per game), with one clean sheet and a goal in every game.

Al-Fayha have not won in their last five: two draws and three defeats, with 4 scored and 8 conceded (0.8 and 1.6 per game). They failed to score twice and kept one clean sheet. Their latest game was a 2-3 home loss to Al-Ahli Jeddah.

Away from home the picture is thinner still. In their last three road games Al-Fayha lost 1-2 at Al-Ittihad FC, drew 0-0 at Al Shabab and lost 0-2 at Al Khaleej Saihat. That is one goal scored (0.33 per game), four conceded and one clean sheet.

Storylines for Al-Hazm and Al-Fayha

For Al-Hazm, the story is a slide. They opened the recent run with a win over Al Taawon, then lost three of the next four, the last of them a 0-1 defeat at league leaders Al-Hilal Saudi FC. A home game against a side two points worse off is a chance to stop that run.

For Al-Fayha, the pressure is greater. They are 15th, winless in five league games, and their goal difference of -7 is the worse of the two. Four of their ten league games have ended level, so draws are not the problem; converting them into wins is.

Both sides have conceded 1.6 goals per game over their last five, so neither can rely on its defence to carry a result.

Where Al-Hazm vs Al-Fayha will be decided

The central contest is Al-Hazm's home scoring against Al-Fayha's road defending. Al-Hazm have scored in all three recent home games and average 1.33, while Al-Fayha have conceded four times in three away matches. That is a modest but real model edge for the hosts.

At the other end, Al-Fayha have scored just once in three away games and failed to score in two of them. Al-Hazm have conceded 1.33 per home game, so they are not watertight, but the visitors' output gives them a chance to keep the margin small.

Early goals may matter. Both teams have shown defensive wobbles, with Al-Hazm conceding three against Al-Fateh and Al-Fayha three against Al-Ahli Jeddah. The side that scores first may force the other to open up, which is a risk for a team as short of goals as Al-Fayha.

Al-Hazm vs Al-Fayha head-to-head

The last six Pro League meetings are balanced: two wins for Al-Hazm, two for Al-Fayha and two draws. Those games produced 11 goals, or 1.83 per game. Both teams scored in two of them, and two went over 2.5 goals.

The most recent meeting was a 2-0 Al-Hazm home win on 11 April 2026. Before that, the sides drew 0-0 at Al-Fayha on 25 December 2025. Al-Fayha won 3-1 at Al-Hazm in February 2024, and Al-Hazm won 3-1 at home in May 2022. Two of the six games finished 0-0, which supports a cautious read on goals.

Al-Hazm vs Al-Fayha prediction

Our lean is a narrow Al-Hazm win, with a draw the main alternative. Three facts drive that: Al-Hazm have scored in every recent home game, Al-Fayha average only 0.33 goals away, and the hosts won the latest meeting 2-0. Al-Hazm's own form is poor, though, so the model edge is small.

On goals, we lean towards a low-scoring match, around one or two in total. Al-Fayha's thin away attack and the two 0-0 draws in the head-to-head point that way, although both defences have been leaky enough for a late goal to change the picture.
