Al Fateh (Away)
- Al Fateh are on a downward trajectory with one win, one draw and three defeats in their last five, the most recent being a 0-1 loss to Al Hilal.
- Jose Gomes has made them a structured 4-2-3-1 side since taking charge in December 2024, with compact pressing and quick transitions.
- Al Fateh’s away record in the Profesional League 2025/2026 is two wins, four draws and six defeats in 12 games.
- The clash of Al Fateh’s forward-pressing style against Al Akhdoud’s deep, compact block should create space at either end of the field.

Key Players
- Christian Bassogog has shown a knack for goals for Al Akhdoud of late, scoring two goals in their last five, but Mourad Batna is a far better pick for an anytime goal here with eight in 23 games this year.
