Al-Fayha welcomes Al Qadsiah to Al Majmaa Sport City for a key Saudi Pro League regular season clash. Both teams have shared identical recent win rates, but the context could hardly be more different. Al Qadsiah sit firmly in the top 4, aiming to secure a continental spot, while Al-Fayha remains stuck in mid-table. What stands out ahead of this fixture is Al Qadsiah’s dominance in recent head-to-heads, including a crushing 5-0 win earlier this season. Al-Fayha’s home advantage is tempered by the visitors’ firepower, but the hosts have a few tricks up their sleeve especially with creative forces like Yassine Benzia and pace merchant Fashion Sakala in their ranks. For Al Qadsiah, Christopher Bonsu Baah’s directness on the wing and the all-action style of Musab Al-Juwayr will demand Al-Fayha’s full attention.
Hot stat: Al Qadsiah have scored 3+ goals in three of their last five league matches, underlining their attacking consistency.

Al-Fayha vs Al Qadsiah prediction
We predict Al Qadsiah to take all three points in Majmaah. The visitors possess a more balanced squad, and their recent record against Al-Fayha simply can’t be ignored. Their attack, led by dynamic forwards and midfielders, has proven too much for mid-table sides. Al-Fayha, despite showing some resilience at home, have struggled for consistency, particularly against the top teams. Their 4-2 win over Al-Riyadh showed attacking potential, but defensive lapses are frequent.
Al Qadsiah excel in possession and pressing averaging more shots (54 to Al-Fayha’s 42) and corners (32 to 26) in their last five. Their fouls are fewer (27 vs 39), so they control the game tempo well and rarely lose their heads. Al-Fayha pick up more bookings, indicating a risk of disrupted rhythm and possibly a late red card. The visitors’ accuracy in passing and set pieces could be a game-changer, while Al-Fayha rely more on direct play and individual moments from players like Sakala. This blend points to an away win, with the probability of multiple goals.

Team Analysis
Al-Fayha’s recent performances reflect a mixed bag. Their last match, a 4-2 win over Al-Riyadh, showed flashes of sharp attacking movement. Jason Remeseiro and Fashion Sakala were lively, constantly probing the backline. Yet defensive discipline remains suspect having conceded in all but one of their last five. The draw against Al Kholood and a home loss to Al-Hazem highlighted their struggles when pressed. Their form is patchy, with two draws and only one win in the last four.
Al Qadsiah, on the other hand, come into this match buoyed by a statement 3-1 win over leaders Al Nassr. Brendan Rodgers’ side look organized, energetic, and clinical. They are undefeated in three of their last four, with attacking midfielders like Christopher Bonsu Baah and Musab Al-Juwayr delivering goals and assists. They rarely get drawn into scrappy contests preferring structured possession and measured pressing. Their only recent wobble was a 2-3 defeat to Al Ettifaq, but they bounced back swiftly.

- MF: Yassine Benzia, Alfa Semedo, Rakan Al-Kaabi, Sabri Abdu Dahal
- FW: Fashion Sakala, Jason Remeseiro
Orlando Mosquera has solidified his place between the posts. Chris Smalling anchors a defense that needs to be alert against Al Qadsiah’s pressing. Yassine Benzia is the creative hub, while Sakala and Remeseiro provide pace and penetration upfront. Pedro Emanuel is likely to stick to the 4-2-3-1 formation, hoping for a compact midfield and quick transitions. Watch for Sakala’s runs in behind.
Al Qadsiah possible starting eleven
- GK: Koen Casteels
- DF: Nacho Fernández, Gastón Álvarez, Jehad Thakri, Yasir Al-Shahrani
- MF: Nahitan Nández, Otávio, Musab Al-Juwayr
- FW: Julián Quiñones, Mateo Retegui, Christopher Bonsu Baah
Koen Casteels gives leadership and calmness in goal. The backline has experience with Nacho Fernández and Gastón Álvarez, both strong in aerial duels. Midfield dynamism comes from Nández and Juwayr, while Bonsu Baah and Quiñones add threat on the wings and Retegui leads the line. Al Qadsiah stick with 4-2-3-1 under Brendan Rodgers, pressing high and attacking wide. Quiñones and Bonsu Baah remain key players to watch.

The Verdict
We predict a convincing win for Al Qadsiah. Their squad quality, tactical discipline, and sharp attack have consistently overwhelmed teams at this level. Al-Fayha have attacking moments but lack the defensive solidity to resist for 90 minutes. Both teams have goals in them, so a 3-1 away win seems realistic. We back Al Qadsiah on the moneyline and suggest backing goals for extra value.
