Fixture Analysis
It is a Pro League clash, Regular Season - 13 as Al-Ahli Jeddah welcome Al Taawon to King Abdullah Sports City. Kick-off is set for Thursday 5 November 2026 at 17:00 UTC.
Form Guide
Al-Ahli Jeddah — All Games: 7W 0D 3L from 10 Pro League outings this season, averaging 2.10 points per game. Last five: L W L W W. They are averaging 2.70 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. This season is still relatively young for Al-Ahli Jeddah, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Al-Ahli Jeddah's form when playing at home: 10W 0D 0L across 10 games at King Abdullah Sports City this term (3.00 PPG). They are averaging 3.40 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 6 clean sheets from 10 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at King Abdullah Sports City. Their home PPG of 3.00 is noticeably stronger than their overall 2.10 — Al-Ahli Jeddah are significantly better at King Abdullah Sports City than their overall form suggests.
Looking at all fixtures this season, Al Taawon stand at 0W 4D 6L from 10 Pro League matches — 0.40 PPG. Last five: D L L L D. Their scoring rate of 0.40 per game is modest, conceding 1.80 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets. This season is still relatively young for Al Taawon, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Pro League this season, Al Taawon have posted 2W 3D 5L from 10 away outings — 0.90 PPG. Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 1.80 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 0.90 exceeds their overall 0.40 — they actually perform better on the road than their aggregate form implies.
On current form, Al-Ahli Jeddah have the edge — a 1.70 PPG advantage (2.10 vs 0.40) represents a meaningful gap. That momentum makes them the form-based pick, though if the outright price looks short, Draw No Bet is worth comparing.
Head to Head
The historical ledger comes down firmly in favour of Al-Ahli Jeddah: 6 wins from 8 previous clashes against 0 for Al Taawon, with 2 draws across those contests.
The 8 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 3.0 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 11 May 2026, ended 2–1 with Al-Ahli Jeddah winning.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H backs both Al-Ahli Jeddah and goals. The home side's 6 wins from 8 meetings, combined with an average of 3.0 goals per game, gives the home win and Over 2.5 combination a historically grounded case.
In-Play Profile
Al-Ahli Jeddah in-play tendencies (42 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 90% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 82% of the time; they lead at the break 52% of the time; BTTS occurs in 55% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 75% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 40%; they keep a clean sheet 50% of the time.
Al Taawon in-play tendencies (42 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 80% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 77% of the time; BTTS occurs in 65% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Al-Ahli Jeddah 45% versus Al Taawon 60%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Al-Ahli Jeddah 60% | Al Taawon 50%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Al-Ahli Jeddah 2.69 xG and Al Taawon 0.82 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-Ahli Jeddah attack 1.604 / defence 0.735 | Al Taawon attack 0.809 / defence 1.200. League average goals — home 1.399 / away 1.388. Al-Ahli Jeddah carry an above-average attack strength of 1.604 — their λ of 2.69 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Al-Ahli Jeddah's defence rating of 0.735 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 42 Al-Ahli Jeddah games / 43 Al Taawon games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Al-Ahli Jeddah 75% | Draw 18% | Al Taawon 7%. Fair-value odds: Al-Ahli Jeddah 1.33 | Draw 5.56 | Al Taawon 14.29. The model has a clear lean to Al-Ahli Jeddah (75%) — a 68pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 68% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 3.52. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 68% — a total xG of 3.52 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 probability of 54% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Al-Ahli Jeddah at 75% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 18% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
The Poisson model projects 3.52 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 68% — strong confidence, supported by form averaging 3.5 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.0 goals per meeting.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Al-Ahli Jeddah 40% | Al Taawon 70% BTTS from recent games.
