Head-to-head statistics Al Fateh - Al Shabab

Al-Fateh suffer four defeats in their last five matches
18 October 2026 Al-Fateh lost at home to Al-Khaleej in a Pro League match, 2-3, despite leading 1-0 at half-time. The visitors had more shots - 16 to 12 - and significantly more possession: 62% to 38%.
Al-Fateh are having a very poor season and sit 16th in the table with six points, firmly in the relegation zone. The team are going through a serious slump, winning just once, drawing three and losing six of their last ten matches. In their previous five games, Al-Fateh won once and lost four, with their most recent match also ending in defeat. The main problem remains an unreliable defence that concedes an average of two goals per game, while the attack manages just 0.9 goals per match, making it extremely difficult for the team to compensate for their defensive errors.

Al-Shabab have managed just one win in their last ten matches
In their most recent Pro League match on 19 October 2026, Al-Shabab drew 2-2 at home with Al Faisaly, letting slip a 2-1 half-time lead. Al-Shabab had 17 shots to their opponents' 11 and were more accurate, hitting the target seven times compared to four.
Al-Shabab sit 13th in the table with eight points, not far above the relegation zone. Their results have been a real concern, with just one win, five draws and four defeats in their last ten matches. In the five matches before this one, they won once, drew twice and lost twice, unable to find any consistency. Their attack averages 1.3 goals per game, while the defence concedes 1.6. Away from home they have been particularly unconvincing, failing to score more than once in each of their last five away matches.

Both Teams to Score Prediction
In 6 of their last 7 head-to-head meetings, both teams have scored. Al-Fateh concede consistently this season - an average of 2 goals per match - and have scored in 19 of their last 20 head-to-head meetings. However, Al-Fateh's average goals scored at home is low (0.6 per match), which slightly reduces confidence in the bet. That said, the head-to-head record supports the Both Teams to Score trend, and Both Teams to Score - Yes is priced at 1.5*.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Al-Shabab are considered slight favourites, but the visitors cannot expect an easy win. Al-Fateh will look to make the most of home advantage and end their poor run. The head-to-head history points to a strong likelihood of goals at both ends: in 6 of the last 7 meetings between these sides, both teams scored. Given the defensive problems on both sides and the need to chase three points, the editor's main prediction is Both Teams to Score.
