Al Fateh form and stats

There's been little loot from Al Fateh's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 7 away games in the Pro League. Al Fateh only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Fateh's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Fateh's previous game was their home loss versus Al Ittihad (2-3). A huge disappointment for Fateh in their last match (vs Al Ittihad). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 2-3 defeat. Fateh were so close to getting something from the game against Al Ittihad, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime.

A draw for Fateh before that, at their own venue hosting Dhamk (5-5).

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Al Fateh as they have only managed to score 4 times from 7 away games in the league. 9 goals have been conceded by Al Fateh in these games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the prior ten meetings between these two participants are: seven wins for Al Hilal, two draws and one win for Al Fateh. Over 2,5 goals: seven times; under 2,5 goals: three games.
