✍️ Match Preview
Pre-Match Analysis
Al-Hilal Saudi FC and Al-Ettifaq meet at Kingdom Arena in Pro League, Regular Season - 22. This fixture gets under way on Friday 13 February 2026 at 15:25 UTC.
Current Form
Al-Hilal Saudi FC's overall Pro League record this term: 7W 3D 0L from 10 games (2.40 PPG). Last five: W D D D W. They are averaging 2.60 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. Defensively, conceding just 0.70 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. This season is still relatively young for Al-Hilal Saudi FC, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Al-Hilal Saudi FC have posted 8W 2D 0L at Kingdom Arena — 2.60 PPG. They are averaging 2.30 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
Al-Ettifaq (all games): 6W 2D 2L across 10 Pro League outings this term — 2.00 points per game. Last five: D W L W W. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.20. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not. This season is still relatively young for Al-Ettifaq, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Pro League this season, Al-Ettifaq have posted 6W 1D 3L from 10 away outings — 1.90 PPG. They are averaging 1.80 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. Both teams have scored in 70% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
Neither side holds a meaningful form edge. The 2.40 vs 2.00 PPG split is negligible — model and market signals should carry more analytical weight for this one.
In terms of goals, both squads have been finding the net consistently (using home/away splits) — Al-Hilal Saudi FC have seen both teams score in 60% of their games, Al-Ettifaq in 70%. That combined rate is a strong statistical case for BTTS Yes as a standalone play.
H2H History
Across 9 previous meetings, Al-Hilal Saudi FC are the stronger side on paper — 7 victories to 0, with 2 draws in between.
The 9 previous meetings have averaged 2.8 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 18 Oct 2025, ended 5–0 with Al-Hilal Saudi FC winning.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H backs both Al-Hilal Saudi FC and goals. The home side's 7 wins from 9 meetings, combined with an average of 2.8 goals per game, gives the home win and Over 2.5 combination a historically grounded case.
Trading
Al-Hilal Saudi FC half-time and goal-timing data (54 games, 26 at home): they score before half-time in 92% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 75% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 75% of those occasions; they lead at the break 59% of the time; BTTS occurs in 58% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 77% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 56%.
Al-Ettifaq half-time and goal-timing data (54 games, 26 at away): they score before half-time in 73% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 73% of the time; BTTS occurs in 69% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 58% of games (away games).
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Al-Hilal Saudi FC 63% and Al-Ettifaq 57% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Al-Hilal Saudi FC 74% | Al-Ettifaq 56%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Al-Hilal Saudi FC 2.28 xG and Al-Ettifaq 1.12 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Al-Hilal Saudi FC attack 1.386 / defence 0.750 | Al-Ettifaq attack 1.106 / defence 1.125. League average goals — home 1.462 / away 1.354. Al-Hilal Saudi FC carry an above-average attack strength of 1.386 — their λ of 2.28 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Al-Hilal Saudi FC's defence rating of 0.750 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 54 Al-Hilal Saudi FC games / 54 Al-Ettifaq games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Al-Hilal Saudi FC 63% | Draw 20% | Al-Ettifaq 17%. Fair-value odds: Al-Hilal Saudi FC 1.59 | Draw 5.00 | Al-Ettifaq 5.88. The model has a clear lean to Al-Hilal Saudi FC (63%) — a 46pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 66% | BTTS probability 61% | Total xG 3.40. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 66% — a total xG of 3.40 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 61% reflects that both xG figures (2.28 / 1.12) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Al-Hilal Saudi FC at 63% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 20% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
Poisson projects 3.40 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 66% probability — strong conviction, supported by form averaging 3.3 goals per game and H2H averaging 2.8 goals per meeting.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 61% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Al-Hilal Saudi FC 60% | Al-Ettifaq 70% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Al-Hilal Saudi FC beat Al-Ettifaq 2-0 at Kingdom Arena, Regular Season - 22, in the Pro League. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Al-Hilal Saudi FC 2.28 xG and Al-Ettifaq 1.12 xG, a combined 3.40. The scoreboard read 2-0 for 2 actual goals. Al-Ettifaq landed 1.1 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Al-Hilal Saudi FC attack 1.39 / defence 0.75 against Al-Ettifaq attack 1.11 / defence 1.12, drawn from 54/54 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Al-Hilal Saudi FC 63% | Draw 20% | Al-Ettifaq 17%, with Al-Hilal Saudi FC to win its most likely call at 63%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 66%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 86% and landed. Over 3.5 was 44% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 61% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 65% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Al-Hilal Saudi FC 74%, Al-Ettifaq 56%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 60%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Al-Hilal Saudi FC's trading profile (54 games, 26 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 63% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and duly kept one.
Al-Ettifaq's trading profile (54 games, 26 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 57% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
On form, Al-Hilal Saudi FC arrived the stronger side — 2.31 PPG against 1.57. Form held, and they took the win. Al-Hilal Saudi FC (home/away splits) managed 2 against a 2.85 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 0.88 average — tighter than their form line. Al-Ettifaq (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.62 scoring average — below par going forward.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (hit). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
