Percentiles from 0 to 100: 90 means better than 90% of clubs in the league, or in the world. Higher means more of that quality. The profile describes the club. It is not part of the score. Missing bars mean there is not enough data yet. How the profile works.

This season they are taking 2.10 points a game from 10 matches, while their performances have been worth 1.83. That is 2.7 points more than the football deserved, which our model calls fair. Their opponents this season have averaged a rating of 1257, an easier schedule than the Pro League (Saudi Arabia) average.

For context, the next club above them in the Pro League (Saudi Arabia) is Al Nassr, rated 1567, and the next one below is Al Ittihad, rated 1494. The gap to the strongest side in the division, Al Hilal, is 149 rating points.
