Al-Hazm seek to unsettle in-form Al-Nassr

A steep table gap

Third-placed Al-Nassr travel to face Al-Hazm, who sit 14th in the 18-team Pro League. The visitors have 28 points from 11 matches, while Al-Hazm have 10 from 12: an 18-point gap, with Al-Nassr having played one fewer game. That makes the visitors clear favourites, but Al-Hazm can still make the contest uncomfortable on home ground.

Al-Hazm have taken a win, three draws and two defeats in six home league matches, scoring seven and conceding eight. They will need to improve on a broader record of two wins in 12 if they are to disrupt Al-Nassr’s push near the top.

Contrasting momentum

Al-Hazm are without a win in six league matches and their most recent outing ended in defeat. Across their last five, they have drawn twice and lost three times, scoring seven goals but conceding 11. Those defensive vulnerabilities are a particular concern against the league’s third-placed side.

Al-Nassr, by contrast, have won four in a row and are unbeaten in six. Their last five brought four wins and a draw, with 13 goals scored and five conceded. They have also won nine of 11 league matches overall, giving them a strong platform to impose themselves.

Recent meetings favour Al-Nassr

Al-Nassr are unbeaten in the last five meetings, winning four while Al-Hazm have not won any. The most recent encounter ended 4-0 to Al-Nassr in February 2026; the previous league meeting at Al-Hazm’s ground also went the visitors’ way, 2-0.

That history underlines the size of Al-Hazm’s challenge. A more compact performance than in the latest meeting will be essential if they are to give the favourites a genuine test.

Can the hosts contain the attack?

Al-Nassr have scored 28 goals and conceded 11 in 11 league matches, while Al-Hazm have scored 14 and let in 20 across 12. The visitors’ 12 away goals in five matches point to a side capable of carrying its threat beyond home soil. Al-Hazm’s best route may be to stay organised and make the most of their opportunities.

Our prediction

Al-Hazm’s home record offers some encouragement, but their six-match winless run meets an Al-Nassr side in a strong spell and with a clear edge in the recent head-to-head. PreviaXI’s model favours the visitors, whose greater attacking output makes a controlled away win the likeliest outcome.
