Al Hazm form and stats
There's been little loot from Al Hazm's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 12 away games in the Pro League. Al Hazm, who have the most conceded goals (50) in Pro League, only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws. 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. Three has not been a lucky number for Al Hazm as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Al Faisaly match.
Hazm lost away at Al Raed (1-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Hazm have scored 15 goals in 12 league games away. The Hazm manager A. Alves Santos has some worries about the defense as 26 goals have been conceded in these travels.
