Al Faisaly vs Al Fateh SC

Al-Faisaly host Al Fateh at Al Majma'a Sport City Stadium in Matchweek 3 of the Saudi Pro League, with both sides still searching for their first points of the 2026-27 season. An early win here could settle nerves before the campaign gathers pace for either club. Neither team has had the ideal start. Al-Faisaly fell 4-2 away to Al-Hilal, with Alexandre Mendy and Théo Bongonda both on the scoresheet to show the attacking threat on offer. Al Fateh, now working under a new coaching setup, were beaten 3-0 by Al-Nassr and struggled to hold possession for long spells. Historically the fixture favors the visitors, with Al Fateh winning 12 of the 27 meetings since 2008 against 8 for Al-Faisaly, and seven draws between them. Expect an open contest at Al Majma'a, with Al-Faisaly's attacking talent up against Al Fateh's more disciplined recent shape. Our prediction: 2-1
