Al-Ettifaq vs Al-Hazm Prediction & Betting Tips

Al-Ettifaq vs Al-Hazm Match Preview

Al-Ettifaq host Al-Hazm in the Saudi Pro League on Friday evening, with both sides desperate to find consistency after uneven starts to the season. The hosts have shown more attacking promise but remain fragile at the back, while Al-Hazm struggle for goals and stability on the road. This fixture gives both clubs a chance to reset against an opponent with similar problems.

Al-Ettifaq’s Defensive Issues Overshadow Bright Moments

Al-Ettifaq have had a mixed run, winning only two of their six league matches. The 1–3 victory at Damac was a strong performance, but heavy defeats to Al-Hilal and Al-Taawoun have exposed serious defensive flaws. They have conceded 13 goals, the second highest tally among teams in the same stretch.

At home, Al-Ettifaq are unpredictable. The 0–0 draw with Al-Ahli showed discipline, yet the 0–5 collapse to Al-Hilal revealed their inability to sustain focus for ninety minutes. The team need a clean performance here to avoid being dragged further down the table.

Al-Hazm Struggling for Identity Away from Home

Al-Hazm remain near the bottom after a slow start, collecting only one win from six matches. The 2–1 victory at Al-Okhdood offered relief but was followed by another defeat to Al-Nassr. With just three goals scored this season, their attack lacks creativity and cutting edge.

On the road, they tend to sit deep and wait for counters, but results have been poor. Losses to Al-Shabab and Al-Ahli underline their struggles to control tempo and handle sustained pressure from stronger sides.

Al-Ettifaq vs Al-Hazm Prediction

Al-Ettifaq to win is the main pick based on recent matchups and their stronger attacking output. The hosts have dominated this fixture in past seasons and should capitalise on Al-Hazm’s lack of threat going forward.

A close contest is likely, given both teams’ inconsistency, but Al-Ettifaq’s home edge and superior scoring options give them the advantage. The visitors’ defensive approach might hold for a while, yet gaps will appear as the match progresses.

A 2–1 home win for Al-Ettifaq fits the form pattern and reflects the balance between both teams’ current strengths and weaknesses.
