Al Hilal vs Al Hazm Prediction

Al Hilal are one win away from securing a 19th league crown. The Riyadh side have had an unbeaten campaign so far, having won 28 and drawn two out of 30 games. They also still have a shot at winning a domestic double with a King's Cup final against arch-rivals Al Nassr to come.

Al Hazm, for their part, are running out of time to preserve their top-flight status. A defeat here could see them relegated.

Barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner in this game. We are backing Al Hilal to claim maximum points with a comfortable win and clean sheet.

Prediction: Al Hilal 4-0 Al Hazm
