The profile this season reads less like a pure goalscorer and more like a creator who still occupies advanced channels and handles final-third combinations[^fact-1]. ## Season form Workload has been steady: 27 appearances and 2,315 minutes on the pitch across the season[^fact-2]. Scoring returns are modest — 4 goals and 8 assists to date[^fact-3] — but the underlying numbers show a continued creative footprint: over the last five matches he has produced 0.57 expected goals and 0.90 expected assists[^fact-5]. Those expected output figures sit alongside a provider rating that averages 7.37 for the campaign, underlining consistent contributions beyond raw goal totals[^fact-4]. ## Availability & momentum Minutes suggest regular selection and fitness; the season total of 2,315 minutes supports a near-weekly role in Al Ahli’s rotation[^fact-2]. Recent match-to-match momentum is cooler: across the last five appearances there have been 0 goals and a single assist in 441 minutes, indicating a drop in end-product despite continued chance involvement[^fact-6]. The most recent outing was a 3–0 win over Al Kholood in which Mahrez registered no direct goal contributions and earned a match rating of 7.31[^fact-7]. That single-match rating aligns closely with his season average and hints at a steady, if unspectacular, match impact[^fact-4][^fact-7]. ## What to watch Attention should centre on whether the underlying creative numbers in the last five matches convert into tangible returns: 0.57 xG and 0.90 xA across that span point to involvement in decent-quality chances even if goals have not followed[^fact-5]. With the dressing-room availability signalled by 2,315 minutes this season, projection for the next fixture is straightforward — expect him to be on the pitch and to carry creative responsibility[^fact-2]. The immediate value to monitor is his chance-creation rate translating into assists or goals: a return to the kind of end-product that produced 8 assists overall would lift both match outcomes and his provider rating trajectory[^fact-3][^fact-4]. ### Cited facts [^fact-1]: **Identity** — 35 years old · Algeria · Attacker · current club Al Ahli.
