Prediction Al Shabab vs Al Hazm 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for the Pro League on 12/09/2025

Match context and recent form

Al Shabab return to Al-Shabab Club Stadium in Riyadh on 12/09/2025 sitting low in the early table after an opening-day reverse that left them 17th with no points. Their season so far has been a mixed bag across the last ten outings — five wins, two draws and three losses in the broader form line — but the curtain-raiser against Al Khaleej was a bruising 1-4 defeat that exposed defensive frailties. The home side still showed intent, registering 13 total shots with four on target, but conceded heavily at the back and have yet to keep a clean sheet at home this season. Al Shabab will be under pressure to tighten up from the first whistle at a modest-capacity Al-Shabab Club Stadium where supporters will demand a reaction.

Al Hazm arrive as the steadier of the two in the immediate snapshot. Currently 9th with a point after a 1-1 draw away to Damac, their recent run reads strongly overall, with a string of wins across the end of last season and positives to build on. In that draw they matched Al Shabab’s shot threat in some ways — four efforts on target from nine total shots — and have shown they can both score and concede. Their away numbers suggest a compact approach that still finds opportunities: one away goal in the opening weekend and no defeats in the early tally.

Tactical narrative and head-to-head

Historically the two sides have produced varied outcomes. The most notable recent meeting saw Al Shabab travel to Al Hazm and come away with a 3-0 victory back in March 2024, showing the Riyadh outfit can be decisive on their day. If Al Shabab can replicate the attacking verve from that encounter while solving the lapses that led to conceding four at home last time out, they could dominate proceedings. Conversely, Al Hazm’s resilience and ability to land meaningful shots on target make them dangerous on the counter and difficult to overlook.

Both teams’ last competitive matches ended with goals at both ends, and the statistics underline an attacking tilt from both sides. Al Shabab’s higher volume of shots and Al Hazm’s composed away performance set up a contest where chances are likely to flow at either end.

Betting suggestion

Given the pattern in the most recent results and the shot metrics from both teams, the most appealing market here is the goal market: Both Teams To Score — Yes. Recent fixtures for both clubs saw goals for and against, and the numbers suggest this encounter is likely to follow suit with attacking intent from Al Shabab and clinical threats from Al Hazm.
