Al-Okhdood has had a strong start to the season. After three rounds, they have two wins and one draw, scoring five goals and conceding only one, with seven points and sitting fifth in the league.
The team is very balanced in both offense and defense, averaging 1.2 goals per game and conceding only 0.2. They've remained undefeated in four consecutive games across different competitions. In the last round of the Saudi First Division, they drew 0 - 0 away against Al-Saqer.
