Analysis & Preview
A Pro League encounter, Regular Season - 11 sees Al Kholood travel to Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium to take on Damac. The game is scheduled for Sunday 24 November 2024, 13:40 UTC.
Form Analysis
Looking at all fixtures this season, Damac stand at 3W 2D 5L from 10 Pro League matches — 1.10 PPG. Last five: W D L D W. Offensively they are averaging 1.60 goals per game, with 1.80 conceded. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. This season is still relatively young for Damac, so this record blends games from this season and last.
At home at Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium, Damac have gone 2W 4D 4L this season (10 games, 1.00 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.00 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game.
Al Kholood — All Games: 1W 4D 5L from 10 Pro League fixtures this season — 0.70 PPG. Last five: L D D D L. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.90 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Al Kholood, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Al Kholood's away record: 1W 2D 2L from 5 road trips in Pro League this season (1.00 PPG). Away from home they average 0.80 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Damac 1.10 PPG, Al Kholood 0.70 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
In-Play Profile
Damac in-play tendencies (10 games, 5 at home): they score before half-time in 80% of fixtures in home games; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 60%.
Al Kholood in-play tendencies (10 games, 5 at away): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 20% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 40%; they fail to score in 30% of games.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Damac 70% and Al Kholood 60% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Damac 70% | Al Kholood 40%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Damac 1.56 xG and Al Kholood 0.97 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: Damac attack 1.083 / defence 1.021 | Al Kholood attack 0.754 / defence 0.985. League average goals — home 1.464 / away 1.261. Data: 44 Damac games / 10 Al Kholood games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Damac 51% | Draw 25% | Al Kholood 24%. Fair-value odds: Damac 1.96 | Draw 4.00 | Al Kholood 4.17. Damac hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 46% | BTTS probability 49% | Total xG 2.53. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.53 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 49% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
Poisson rates Damac as the most likely outcome at 51% — moderate model lean. With a 25% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Damac offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.53 combined xG gives a 46% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 49% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Damac 50% | Al Kholood 60%.

How It Unfolded
Damac beat Al Kholood 2-1 at Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium, Regular Season - 11, in the Pro League. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Damac 1.56 xG and Al Kholood 0.97 xG, a combined 2.53. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape.

Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 46%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 72% and landed.

Verdict
