Al Ahli’s Back-to-Back Dream: Chasing a Long-Awaited Win Against Al Fateh
Al Ahli looks to break the back-to-back win curse against Al Fateh in a key Saudi Pro League clash.

Milestone Bid in Jeddah

Al Ahli Jeddah head into Friday’s match against Al Fateh chasing an awaited achievement in the 11th round of the Roshen Saudi Pro League. They hope to extend winning run and narrow the gap at the summit.

Century Milestone in Head-to-Head

A victory would mark a trophy-like moment for the team, which has not managed back-to-back wins against Al Fateh since October 2018.

In the meantime, the two sides have traded results, with Fateh taking 1-0, then 1-1, and a heavy 5-1 win.

The clash also carries a potential milestone, as head-to-heads between the teams have produced 100 goals, meaning the first strike could spark a new century record.

So far, Al Ahli have 62 goals to Fateh’s 38, with Al Ahli claiming 18 wins to Fateh’s 10 and four draws.

The stakes are high, as consecutive wins could shift momentum in a season still taking shape.

Both teams are known for attacking tempo and quick transitions, a recipe that rarely disappoints fans craving goals.

As kick-off nears, supporters hope for a clean sheet, a marquee performance from forwards, and a touch of luck to tilt the scales.

The meeting also tests patience and consistency for both sides as the title race heats up, for fans everywhere tonight.

Punchline: If football were math, tonight's score would require a calculator.

Punchline: Centuries are measured in goals, not yawns.
