Neutral30%

The 4-4-2 tactical formation is widely used, providing stability in the defensive counter-attacking style of play, but lacks flexibility when facing Diraiyah teams with good ball control.

Diraiyah has 25% of its matches ending in a draw, indicating the capacity to maintain positive results in matches, despite not demonstrating a significant advantage.
Negative30%
dot icon
Diraiyah faces significant difficulties when facing strong teams, with two heavy defeats (1-4 against Al Nassr, 0-1 against Al Ahli SC) highlighting the defensive instability and poor reaction under pressure.
dot icon
Lack of concentration in defense led to 11 goals conceded (an average of 1.1 goals per game), with 3 heavy defeats clearly reflecting the weakness in the ability to keep a clean sheet.

The ratio of matches with 3 goals or more (Over 2.5) reaches 40%, indicating an open playing style but not stable enough to maintain high performance in every match.

Using the 3-1-4-2 formation as a fixed system demonstrates a lack of flexibility when facing teams with fast counter-attacking or tight defensive styles
Negative25%

Against tight defensive opponents, Al Qadsiah often struggles, as seen in their 0-0 draws with Girona and Real Oviedo, where they didn't get a single corner, reflecting their lack of efficiency in controlling the game.
