Head-to-head statistics Al-Riyadh - Al Taawon

Al-Riyadh have managed just two wins in their first nine rounds
Al-Riyadh's last Pro League match on 20 October 2026 ended in a 0-1 away defeat to Al-Duraih. Al-Riyadh had more possession and won nine corners to their opponents' two, but were outshot on target 4-8.
Al-Riyadh have made a poor start to the new season and sit 13th in the table after nine rounds, with nine points. During that period the team have won just twice, drawn three times and lost four. The last five matches have told a similar story - one win, two draws and two defeats. The main problem for Al-Riyadh remains their defence, which is conceding an average of two goals per match in the league. Their attack, meanwhile, is scoring exactly one goal per game, so even minor defensive errors frequently cost them points.

Al-Taawoun: struggling in attack
At home against Al-Qadsiah, Al-Taawoun's previous Pro League match on 20 October 2026 ended in a 0-1 defeat. The opposition significantly outshot them - 22 to 6 - and eight saves prevented Al-Taawoun from losing by a wider margin.
Al-Taawoun find themselves in a very difficult position, sitting 17th in the table with four points. They are three points from safety, and getting out of the relegation zone will not be straightforward. In ten league matches they have not won once, drawing four and losing six. Their attacking output is particularly poor: Al-Taawoun are averaging just 0.4 goals per game, which severely limits their chances of getting a positive result.

Total Goals Prediction
In 9 of Al-Taawoun's last 10 matches, the total has come in under 3.5 goals, and the average scoring rate for both sides remains low: Al-Riyadh are averaging 1 goal per match, while Al-Taawoun are averaging just 0.4. These figures, combined with the low-scoring trend, point towards Total Goals - Under 3.5 at 1.37*.
Safer Bet
Al-Taawoun have scored fewer than 2.5 goals in 13 of their last 14 away matches, and their average away goals tally is just 0.8 per game. Given the visitors' low scoring rate, Al-Taawoun Team Total - Under 2.5 at 1.19* looks very reliable.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Al-Taawoun are considered slight favourites for this match, but their current form gives little reason to back them with confidence. Both sides are struggling seriously in front of goal, and the statistics bear that out. Al-Riyadh have scored fewer than two goals in 15 of their last 17 home Pro League matches, while Al-Taawoun have failed to reach that mark in 12 of their last 13 away fixtures in the same competition. Given both teams' poor attacking output and the high cost of mistakes in a relegation battle, fairly cautious football with few clear-cut chances seems likely. The bet is Total Goals - Under 2.5.
