Damak vs Al Hazem prediction
Former Arouca and Famalicao boss Armando Evangelista has been given the Damak job, with the expectation being that they avoid being dragged into the relegation battle this season. They do have a limited squad, though, and they are expected to be busy in the final week or so of this summer’s transfer window.
Following their promotion back to the Saudi Pro League at the first attempt last season, Al Hazem are another side that are expected to be among the busiest in the final few days of the window after a very quiet summer market. Former Tunisia boss Jalel Kadri has taken charge of Al Hazem ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
Jalel Kadri has gained a reputation for his very defensive style of football and, on the opening day, they are likely to put men behind the ball and make this a fairly tedious watch for the neutral.
Damak vs Al Hazem tip: Under 2.5 goals
