Al Khaleej host Al Ahli at the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium in Dammam in a Saudi Pro League fixture that pits a side fighting to stay relevant against one of the division’s form teams.
Al Khaleej arrive in poor shape. Three consecutive league defeats, including a 5-0 thrashing at Al-Ettifaq and a 3-1 loss at home to Al Akhdoud, have left them rooted in the bottom half with little to play for but pride.
Al Ahli, by contrast, are in the middle of a strong run. Roberto De Zerbi’s side have won four of their last five Saudi Pro League matches, scoring freely and conceding little. They sit third in the table and are pushing for a finish that would secure continental football next season.
The gap in quality and motivation between these two clubs could hardly be wider. Al Khaleej have struggled to defend and failed to threaten going forward across recent weeks, while Al Ahli have looked sharp and purposeful in attack.
For the visitors, this is a match they will expect to win. A third-place finish carries real weight in the Saudi Pro League standings, and De Zerbi’s squad will not want to drop points against a side that has lost three on the spin.

Al Khaleej have lost three of their last five Saudi Pro League matches, with their most recent result a 3-1 defeat to Al Akhdoud on May 16. That followed a 5-0 loss at Al-Ettifaq and a narrow 2-1 defeat at home to Al Hilal, a run that points to a side low on confidence. Their two wins in this period, a 2-0 victory at Damac and a 3-1 win over Al Najma, feel distant given the scale of the defeats that followed.
Al Ahli have been in commanding form, winning four consecutive Saudi Pro League matches heading into this fixture. Their most recent outing was a 3-0 win over Al Kholood on May 16, which extended a run that also included a 1-2 away win at Al-Taawoun and a 3-1 victory over Al Fateh. Al Ahli scored 13 goals across their last five matches and conceded just three, with their only defeat in that stretch a 2-0 loss at Al Nassr in late April.

Al Ahli have been the dominant force in recent meetings between these two clubs. The most recent encounter came in January 2026, when Al Ahli ran out 4-1 winners on home soil in the Saudi Pro League. Across the last five meetings, Al Ahli have won four times and Al Khaleej have failed to win any, with a 2-2 draw in March 2025 the closest the Dammam side have come to a positive result. Al Ahli have scored 13 goals across those five fixtures and conceded just five.
Standings
Al Ahli sit third in the Saudi Pro League, placing them firmly in contention for a top-flight continental berth, while Al Khaleej are 11th and well clear of any immediate danger but with nothing left to chase.

- Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
