Saudi Arabia heads into its Arab Cup 2025 quarter-final against Palestine carrying a dominant historical record. Across ten previous meetings in all competitions, the Green Falcons have registered five wins and five draws, leaving Palestine still searching for their first victory against their regional rivals.
The matchup dates back to their first encounter in the 1992 Arab Cup, where Saudi Arabia earned a 2-1 win. Since then, the story has largely remained the same. Whether in World Cup qualifiers, regional tournaments or international friendlies, Saudi Arabia has consistently controlled the fixture. Their superiority has been underlined by results such as the emphatic 5-0 triumph in March 2021 and a hard-fought 3-2 win during the 2015 qualifiers. Even so, several matches have been tightly contested, showing that Palestine can compete—even if breaking the trend has remained out of reach.
As Thursday’s knockout clash approaches, Palestine faces yet another opportunity to rewrite history. A maiden win over Saudi Arabia would be monumental, but it will require something extraordinary against a talented and tournament-savvy Saudi team. Still, in the unpredictability of cup football, hope remains alive—and anything can happen.
