The Saudi Professional League clash between Al Ettifaq FC and Al-Ahli SFC ended in a goalless 0-0 draw on September 12, 2025. This result at Al Ettifaq's home ground represented a point gained for the hosts against one of the division's stronger sides, though it did little for either team's aspirations of challenging for the title. The match process was characterized by cautious tactics and a midfield battle, with both teams canceling each other out for large periods. The best chance of the game fell to Al-Ahli in the second half, but their striker blazed over from close range. The key focus point was the disciplined defensive performance from Al Ettifaq, particularly their central defenders who dealt comfortably with Al-Ahli's attacking threats. This draw meant Al-Ahli dropped points in the title race, while Al Ettifaq moved a small step further from the relegation conversation.
