Al Hazem preview: On their way to the Division 1
While Al Hazem have won four points in the last two rounds in the league, they only have 20 points overall from 30 games, which puts them in the last place in the standings. They are eight points behind the first team outside of the relegation zone and with four games left in the season, their chances of staying up are pretty much only theoretical at this point.
On the bright side, Al Hazem enter the next match with a clean bill of health. However, Ahmed Al-Jaweed will miss this match through suspension.
Predicted Lineup – Dahmen – Alabsi, Ricardo, Viana – Al-Thani, Qasheesh, Moreno, Toze – Badamosi, Selemani

Player to watch: Aleksandar Mitrovic
The Serbian striker has 25 goals in the league this season, which makes him Al Hilal's top scorer and puts him only behind Ronaldo when it comes to top scorers in the Saudi Pro League.
Mitrovic to score first?
While Mitrovic has scored 25 goals in the league, he was the first goalscorer in eight matches. That makes betting on him to score first in this game a good choice.
