Four of the last five meetings produced three or more goals. Only the February 0-0 is a true low-event outlier. Longer duel numbers favour Hilal (home wins 6, away wins 2, draws 2 in the pack summary), but Ahli have taken recent scalps too. Expect chances at both ends more often than a cagey 0-0 repeat.
