Al Hazm form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Al Hazm so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-7 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Hazm's last three away games as they have all been lost.

The manager Gâlcă was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue Prince Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Stadium (King Abdullah Sport City Stadium). Al Hazm suffered a 1-2 loss to Al Shabab (placed 3rd).

Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against Al Raed.

We have checked recent matches where Al Hazm have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were one victory, two draws and five defeats.

Goals are few and far between in Hazm's away league games. Only 3 goals from 9 travels. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Al Hazm have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.
