Al-hazem Vs Al-riyadh: April 24 showdown at Al-Hazm Club Stadium

Yousef Al Shammari, who has scored four goals in the ongoing league campaign, will be one of the names to watch when Al Hazem are scheduled to face Al Riyadh on Friday, April 24, 2026.

The match is set for matchweek 29 of the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League at the Al-Hazm Club Stadium in Al-Rass, Saudi Arabia, with kick-off at 09:40 p.m. IST.

Al Hazem arrive having recorded nine wins in 28 league games and sitting 10th on the table. They come off a 2-0 victory against Al Fayha that is the club’s most recent result before this fixture.

Al Riyadh occupy 16th place and are in the relegation zone. The visiting side’s position on the table is the immediate fact that gives this fixture sharp consequences for both clubs in the closing stages of the season.

Individually, two attacking figures stand out in the available numbers. Leonardo Antunes has six goals in nine Saudi Pro League appearances this season, a strike rate that contrasts with Al Shammari’s four goals across the campaign so far.

All matches from matchweek 29 will be available on the FanCode app and website for viewers who follow the Saudi Pro League, and fans in the United Kingdom can watch via DAZN UK.

Context for the fixture is straightforward: this is a league game inside the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League season, with Al Hazem the home team and Al Riyadh the away side. The result will count toward league positions that are already defined by the standings before April 24.

The tension in the fixture is immediate. A midtable Al Hazem — unbeaten in their most recent result — host an Al Riyadh side whose current standing places them in the relegation zone; the numerical gap on the table sets a clear, measurable stake for the match.

How each team uses its attacking options is the practical unknown. Antunes’ six goals in nine appearances make him a notable threat on paper, while Al Shammari’s four goals add to Al Hazem’s offensive ledger; which of those figures, and which team, alters the table most on April 24 is the central question the scoreboard will answer.

Whatever the outcome, the fixture is scheduled, streamed and clear in consequence: a Friday evening kickoff at Al-Hazm Club Stadium that will either consolidate Al Hazem’s midtable position or deepen the pressure on Al Riyadh as they try to climb out of 16th place in the 2025-26 season.
