Nervous top table thriller as Al Ahli Jeddah have come the 559 miles needed to duel with Al Hazm at their Ar-Rass Stadium.

Insights:
  • Al Hazm have the most points (40) at home in Division 1
  • Al Ahli Jeddah have the fewest conceded goals (24) in Division 1

Hazm are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Happy, happy days for Al Ahli Jeddah who are already winners of the Division 1. This could affect their motivation.

These teams have little in common geographically as Al Ahli Jeddah have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
