✍️ Match Preview

Fixture Analysis

Al-Fateh welcome Al Taawon to Al Fateh club stadium in Pro League (matchday 22). Kick-off is Thursday 11 March 2027 at 18:00 UK time.

Form Guide

Al-Fateh — last 10 games: 1W 3D 6L, averaging 0.60 points per game. Last five: L W L L L. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 2.10 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. However, 2.10 goals conceded per game is a concern — opposing attacks have exploited them regularly. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.

Al-Fateh's home record over their last 10 home games: 2W 2D 6L (0.80 PPG). At home they are averaging 0.90 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game.

Across their last 10 games, Al Taawon have recorded 0W 4D 6L — 0.40 PPG. Last five: L D L L D. Their scoring rate of 0.40 per game is modest, conceding 1.70 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%).

Al Taawon's away record over their last 10 away games: 2W 2D 6L (0.80 PPG). Away from home they average 1.40 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.

There is minimal separation in the form figures — Al-Fateh at 0.60 PPG versus Al Taawon's 0.40. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.

H2H Record

Despite the home advantage, Al Taawon have the better record in our head-to-head data — 5 wins from 10 H2H matches against 2 for Al-Fateh.

Goals have been a feature of this fixture — the 10 H2H matches in our data averaged 3.0 per game, which gives Over 2.5 a solid head-to-head foundation. The most recent of those, on 5 Sep 2026, ended Al-Fateh 0–0 Al Taawon — a draw.

The H2H data backs the away side. Al Taawon have won 5 of 10 H2H matches, and at 3.0 goals per game the goals market also points upward — the away win and Over 2.5 combination has a head-to-head case.

Trading Patterns

Al-Fateh in-play and half-time data (last 46 games, 23 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; of the 9 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 33%; BTTS occurs in 61% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 56% of games (home games); they fail to score in 30% of games.

Al Taawon in-play and half-time data (last 46 games, 23 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 78% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 79% of the time; BTTS occurs in 65% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 61% of games (away games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Al-Fateh 59% versus Al Taawon 59%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Al-Fateh 48% | Al Taawon 50%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Al-Fateh 1.29 xG and Al Taawon 1.50 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-Fateh attack 0.748 / defence 1.318 | Al Taawon attack 0.771 / defence 1.143. League average goals — home 1.507 / away 1.478. Al-Fateh's attack rating of 0.748 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.29. Al Taawon's attack rating of 0.771 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.50. Al-Fateh's defence rating of 1.318 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Al Taawon's projected output up. Data: built from Al-Fateh's last 46 games and Al Taawon's last 46.

Result probabilities: Al-Fateh 30% | Draw 30% | Al Taawon 40%. Fair-value odds: Al-Fateh 3.31 | Draw 3.36 | Al Taawon 2.50. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 53% | BTTS Yes probability 59% | Total xG 2.79. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 53%/47% — the total xG of 2.79 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 59% is only a slight lean — 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 Taawon at 40% — marginal model lean. The head-to-head data (Al Taawon 5 wins from 10 H2H matches) corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Al Taawon offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 2.79 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 53% — strong conviction, supported by recent form (Al-Fateh's last 10 home games and Al Taawon's last 10 away games) averaging 2.9 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 3.0 goals per game across 10 H2H matches.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 59% on Yes. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Al-Fateh 40% (last 10 home games) | Al Taawon 70% (last 10 away games).
