Al-Kholood vs Al Hilal Prediction & Betting Tips - Saudi Pro League

Prediction published on 29/12/2025, 12:30  by Thobelani Moyo in Saudi Pro League Predictions

12th-placed Al-Kholood will welcome second-placed Al-Hilal to the King Abdullah Sport City Stadium on matchday 12 of the Saudia Pro League. Here's our match prediction.

Al-Kholood have accumulated nine points from ten league games this season. They find themselves embroiled in a relegation dogfight, having maintained three points over the red dotted line.

Coming into this match, head coach Des Buckingham will be hoping for a more improved performance from his side, whose last league win was on October 17th.

Since that result, a positive outcome has been elusive with the Pride of Ar Rass suffering five consecutive defeats. Their most recent setback came in the form of a 2-0 home defeat against Al-Taawon. This comes after winning 4-3 against Al-Khaleej in the quarter-finals of the King's Cup.

Al-Hilal have shown no signs of slowing down. The visitors have been impressive and enter this clash riding a 15-match winning streak across all competitions.

The Global Leader stormed to a three-goal lead in their recent league game against Al-Khaleej. They were almost pegged back after conceding two late goals, but managed to hold on for a narrow 3-2 home victory.

In unfamiliar territory, they have the chance to extend their unbeaten run to nine games across all competitions. Notably, they have won their last three league outings and boast the third-best away record in the league this season.
