- They have, however, been pretty well organised on his watch as he always tries to set up his side with a pragmatic, organization-first mindset.
- Al-Hazm are built around a compact 4-3-3 formation that sits deep and looks to play on the break or get the ball into the box from a corner.
Al-Najma (away)

- Al Najma are winless in their last five games, drawing 2 and losing 3, and have lost their last 2 away from home.
- The visitors have conceded 15 goals at an average of 2.14 per away game, so it looks very much like the home side should have enough to snatch the win.
- Al-Najma are a worse team than Al-Hazm on all fronts, but they do try to play football under Mario Silva, who got them promoted last season and brought a structured, disciplined style to the club when he took over in July 2024.
- He will set his team up in either a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation with the players pressing in numbers and coordinated blocks.
- Al-Najma’s top scorer is Lazaro, who has four goals in ten league games, and he is a constant threat to opposition defenses when he plays.
Key Players
