Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Phoenix Anka]

Stupid messi was not even choosing this quality league compared with garbage MLS. Does he scary to face ronaldo or what? It will be so good to have him join in al nassr's competitor. I think that messi was choosing the wrong choice by joining in MLS instead of saudi pro league.
Saudi pro league offers similar atmosphere like european competition at this moment. Im still hoping messi to change his mind someday. It will be so good to see messi vs ronaldo again like when those guys were playing for barcelona and messi.

Attractive young talented players to join in the saudi pro league is far harder compared with aged players who are very close to retire. I think that we will see modric to come in SPL.
Moadric may leave from real madrid soon. SAudi pro league teams shall have anticipated modric's movement. It will be so good to see him join in SPL.
SPL will become bigger. I would like to see some legendary name to come but sadly hazard chooses to retire instead of joining in rela madrid.

I don't think wrong with Lionel Messi not choose Saudi Pro League and prefer for playing with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer or MLS, but have bad or disappointed decision because Lionel Messi will not play in competitive football more than three months later after Inter Miami failed qualify to playoff round. Actually its not moment for fighting or competition between Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo must playing in the same competition, both players still have opportunity with fighting each other on World Cup 2026 if not retired from national team.

Lionel Messi have show he has best achievement than Cristiano Ronaldo after winning FIFA World Cup 2022 trophy with Cristiano Ronaldo have poor performance with his national team.

Usually, players will try to choose the teams in which they can have the chance to earn money more than other players and that's why they join the Saudi League to have investments for the rest of their lives but still, Lionel Messi didn't choose this league because he wanted to live in a country like America where he can have the chance to have better facilities for his wife and kids because he gives more priority to his family.
  

I think this was a bit of Messi's mistake. The contract offered to him was incredible and he would stay in the Saudi league for 2 years and support his family more easily. After all, his children are young and a 2-year Saudi Arabia adventure would be a move that would raise him greatly economically. He preferred less and less earnings to the United States. His choice and consequences are, of course, his business.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are currently not in the same station at all however both players play on teams other than top European teams. Ronaldo and his teammates should be ready for the next game they are going to have in the Saudi League against Damac and this team can't be a hard opponent for a team like Al Nassr which means Ronaldo can have a good chance to shine in this game.
However, the rates are very low for Al Nassr in the match.

even if Al Nassr is a favorite for bookies, we still have to be careful not to place too big a bet on Al Nassr because surprises could happen, but if you look at the depth of the Al Nassr players, they are very ready to beat Damac and Ronaldo is very enthusiastic about competing soon the meeting because he knew that Damac was not an equal opponent and was confident of scoring big in the match.
betting for -2 with odds @1.70 seems very good because at least Al Nassr scores 3 or more.

I wouldn't bet big on this fight. Because sometimes Al-Nassr actually gets bad results when facing teams that are not favored. In the previous match, we were surprised by the draw we got against Abha. In fact, between Abha and Al-Nassr there is quite a difference in strength. But Abha was able to maintain the rhythm of the game and hold Al-Nassr to a draw.
This time Damac could do the same. Because Damac is actually stronger than Abha.

Even Al-hilal was also held to a draw by Damac. And Damac also hasn't experienced defeat in the last few matches. So this match will probably be much more difficult than we imagined.

Moving to Saudi Pro League would have returns memories of the old times we watch the GOATS rivalries on the pitch. Cristiano Ronaldo versus Leo Messi for the SPL trophy, but the Argentina international denied everyone such good moments when he turned down the massive bids and settled for a more lesser results. Leo Messi made the appropriate decision he thinks was better for him, accepting offers from MLS clubs was basically an important move for him, he's keen on exploring to the important aspects of his career in his last years as a professional player.

[MAAManda]

Al-Ittihad and Al-Taawoun doesn't have much difference in the points. Odds were in support of Al-Ittihad, and Al-Taawoun could will surely give the high competence. Even in the previous encounter the odds were into Al-Ittihad and Al-Taawoun won the match. Al-Ittihad and Al-Nassr were the much discussed teams, but silently Al-Taawoun is moving towards the top. If Al-Taawoun win the upcoming match, then Al-Taawoun reaches the first position on the points table.

Of course, Al-Taawoun will give tough competition there later, but I'm still sure that the one who will win this match is Al-Ittihad, the results of their previous meeting can't be used as a definite reference. Will you bet on this match?

But I think that people are really underestimating Al Ittihad in this match. I know that the odds are against them right now, but I believe they have the capability to actually win this match, the possibility of Al Ittihad winning this match is also not very low in my opinion. Especially when both of them have scored, and also conceded the same amount of goals Almost.

Are you talking shit here?, no one is underestimating Al-Ittihad, they're one of the strongest teams in the SPL at the moment, then you are talking about the bookies against them, you're wrong, the bookies are on their side and are favourites.

It not mistake but because of Messi and desire to continue to be star player there because in the SPL there are already quite lot of top European players which might make it difficult for Messi to develop much differently if he plays in the MLS.
If it only about money that Messi also earns lot of money by playing in MLS and even gets decent place to be with his family for several seasons there then what else is wrong with Messi regarding his decision last season to reject an offer from Saudi and choose to go to United States of America.

Messi is quite old and he is not fast enough to compete with the young European players who are currently quite numerous in Saudi.
But I haven't seen two rivals meet each other for win between Messi and Ronaldo for a long time, if only last season Messi had accepted the Saudi offer then I could have seen this one.

Over 3.5 seems a good choice as it was offering @1.83 i meant let's take a look at how al nassr was always beating its opponent with huge margins. I have no doubt that if ronaldo will be also scoring against abha. ABHA was always losing in the last 5 matches.
No doubt if al nassr will able to scoring a lot of goals against ABHA. -2 seems good enough caused by al nassr will be winning with huge margin. My prediction for this match will be 3-0. It's not that hard for al nassr to win against ABHA with huge scores at this moment.
Nssr is far superior compared with ABHA. Ronaldo will be also putting his name in the scoring board. Ronaldo shall become the top scorer in this season.

Both players competed against each other for years in the Spanish La Liga. That's why I don't think Messi is running away from Ronaldo, but it would be best if they competed again in the same league. However, I agree with your view that MLS is a worse league than the SPL in terms of quality of competition. The teams in the SPL have made some great signings this season. If Messi had joined this league, he would have played in a better league and the quality of the SPL would have improved. Anyway, Messi and Ronaldo's rivalry is almost over. Now we should focus on the rivalries between younger players.

I'm a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo but I don't find it sensible to think that Lionel Messi rejected the offers from Saudi Arabian clubs and joined Major League Soccer side Inter Miami because he was avoiding to play in the same league with Cristiano Ronaldo nor was he running away from competitive football.
Lionel Messi has won everything in football and has the right to chose wherever he wants to play football and that shouldn't be attached to his rivalry with Cristiano Ronaldo. These two players has graced our screens for the past two decades and deserves to be respected in any decision they decides to take and not to be dragged.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are currently not in the same station at all however both players play on teams other than top European teams. Ronaldo and his teammates should be ready for the next game they are going to have in the Saudi League against Damac and this team can't be a hard opponent for a team like Al Nassr which means Ronaldo can have a good chance to shine in this game.
However, the rates are very low for Al Nassr in the match.

Indeed, if you look at the history of matches in the near future, Al Nassr is always ahead and in five matches Al Nassr won 4 times and Damac only won 1 time, but I don't think we will know what will happen with alnassr  against Damac on October 21 , and it could be that Damac shows a good performance and it is not impossible that Damac can win because Damac also has a history of winning against Al Nassr, and I also remember when Abha fought Al Nassr which of course many thought Al Nassr would win and it turned out to be a draw with score 2-2 even though if you look at the rankings of course Al Nassr is superior.

[X-ray]

The saudi arabian league will definitely improve the standard of their league to be better every season by building a bigger stadium and also bringing in several referees who have big names in football. I think that slowly, with many top european players joining the saudi arabian league, The saudi arabian league will certainly become more competitive every season.

They have a mission to host the world cup and remove human rights violations. With the current state of the source of wealth they are trying to expand out of the staple source of Oil. They are aware that Oil will begin to be scarce and run out. So they tried to build a football business. They are still controlling money to attract good European players. So it seems that the SPL process will be of the same quality as the European leagues.

Saudi Arabia is currently at the top of the discussion due to the addition of some European players to the club. Because many countries are in the current position to join oil cooperation, they are ready to predict that they may lose money from the oil business. But the Saudi clubs will not be destroyed because they will become more and more successful in the future. But the most talked about gain would be if they could host a World Cup in Saudi Arabia.

Billions of money spent by saudi pro leagu in one season. No doubt if SPL has become the hottest topic talked by many people. In fact, the came of GOAT to the SPL has been changing the environment drastically at this moment.
Ronaldo was also able attracting many people to come in. The next world cup will not be in the saudi pro league but this country was hoping 2030 world cup will be happening at saudi.
I hope that already spent by this counrt will be paid off. I meant saudi has spent a lot of money to build its football league to be even better. it will be so bad if FIFA will not trust this country to hoest 2030 world cup.

Ronaldo is also feeling so happy to play in saudi pro league. The club was valuing him a lot and it's worthy caused by he was the most followed account in instagram.
Nssr needs to extend his contract to be even longer.

Attractive young talented players to join in the saudi pro league is far harder compared with aged players who are very close to retire. I think that we will see modric to come in SPL.
Moadric may leave from real madrid soon. SAudi pro league teams shall have anticipated modric's movement. It will be so good to see him join in SPL.
SPL will become bigger. I would like to see some legendary name to come but sadly hazard chooses to retire instead of joining in rela madrid.

I don't think wrong with Lionel Messi not choose Saudi Pro League and prefer for playing with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer or MLS, but have bad or disappointed decision because Lionel Messi will not play in competitive football more than three months later after Inter Miami failed qualify to playoff round. Actually its not moment for fighting or competition between Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo must playing in the same competition, both players still have opportunity with fighting each other on World Cup 2026 if not retired from national team.

Usually, players will try to choose the teams in which they can have the chance to earn money more than other players and that's why they join the Saudi League to have investments for the rest of their lives but still, Lionel Messi didn't choose this league because he wanted to live in a country like America where he can have the chance to have better facilities for his wife and kids because he gives more priority to his family.
  

I don't think it's a problem to join any club or any league as long as it makes a player more appreciated there. I respect Messi's decision in this matter. But currently I rarely follow Messi's matches at his new team (Inter Miami) so I don't know how things are going there.

But because I follow the SPL more, I have an opinion about the clubs in the SPL who really respect the players they bring in. Even Cristiano Ronaldo seems to be very comfortable at Al-Nassr and reportedly he even asked for a contract extension there. But before Cristiano Ronaldo asked for this. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we have also heard about the owner of Al-Nassr who has the same plan and still wants Ronaldo to stay at Al-Nassr after his contract expires in 2025. So it is very likely that Cristiano Ronaldo will be at Al-Nassr longer. And only at Al-Nassr did I see Cristiano Ronaldo find his confidence again. Because he is appreciated there by all the players at the club and also by all the fans there.

If Messi joins the Arab League. So I'm sure he will also be highly respected in this league. And I think everyone's dream is to see these two legendary players in the same league. If other people want Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi to be rivals. I personally really want to see these two players play together at the same club. Well this doesn't make sense but I think this would be the best combination in the history of football.

Al-Nassr is a tough opponent for Damac, of course it is not easy for Damac to be able to break Al-Nassr's defense, Al-Nassr is in the best performance currently achieving a draw in the match with Abha which would be understandable because if it weren't for the penalty kick that What Abha did was that Al-Nassr could have won the match because Al-Nassr was already 2 goals ahead in the first half and in the last minute Abha was able to equalize.
However, looking for Damac's big Odds, it seems that it can be concluded that Al-Nassr's chances of winning are greater in this match, especially since Al-Nassr will be playing at home, of course Al-Nassr will show their best performance in this match to be able to get full points and can shift second position at this time.

However, the rates are very low for Al Nassr in the match.

Cristiano Ronaldo's coming to the Saudi Pro League has brought another achievement to his football career and has also created an avenue for old players in the European teams to have extra fame after their football careers in Europe. That is what Messi also wanted to do, which is why he moved to Inter Miami; nevertheless, both of them have a good impact in football and are representing their respective teams well.
 
Al Nassr match against Damac is a must-win match because since the arrival of Ronaldo in the Al Nassr team, they have been winning Damac club, and now that Al Nassr had an unimpressive draw against Abha in their last natch, I am very sure they will win this match.

Al-Nassr again gets very small odds but it's not surprising that they have several star players in them, especially so far Ronaldo has been unstoppable in continuing to score goals. Now Al-Nassr has a clear target in sight to be able to continue to catch up with the points left behind by Al-Hilal who are currently at the top of the standings with 23 points. If you look at the second H2H, Al-Nassr can always dominate with lots of wins, so it's not a difficult matter for Al-Nassr to beat Damac.

I think normal odds betting will not mean anything for Al-Nassr's victory and I quite agree that I should take a handicap bet to get better odds. But I think every time Al-Nassr hosts, Damac can always score and that makes me hesitate to bet on handicaps. So I will look for another way with a BTTS bet with odds @1.91, at least that can be a sure thing in my opinion.

On paper, Al Nassr can secure full points when facing Damac FC, with the depth of the squad it has which is very suitable if Al Nassr is superior. Besides Cristiano Ronaldo who is also in on fire form, the Portugal captain scored 4 goals in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, this performance really helped Al Nassr to win over Damac. This opportunity is quite big, considering that Al Nassr is acting as the host in this match, winning 3 points will really help them to close the gap with Al Hilal at the top of the standings.

In the previous match, Al Nassr had to be willing to share points with Abha Club, so that Al Nassr position was stuck in third place in the standings. I think Al Nassr will win easily with lots of goals to be scored, I think Damac can only target a draw at Al Nassr home ground, but that is very difficult to happen.

It's really wrong. I remember when he was being hyped to be a savior for intermiami but please take a look at the fact if miami is only moving up 1 position. There's no different between intermiami with/without messi.
The club is still mediocre even there was a GOAT playing there. Messi was wrongly choosing the garbage league. Look at how so many media was also publishing him being linked back again to the barcelona.
It's very disappointed to see him pick wrong league caused by he's only used to increase the popularity of intermiami.

Messi is a sissy, it start from Messi bribed FIFA to win 7 Ballon d'Or, win the world cup trophy and not want to compete against Ronaldo. So if you think Messi is a bad player, then you're correct, Messi is a representation of money can buy everything.

I just Inter Miami, their current position are in 14th from 15 teams lol.

Now back to Saudi Pro League, Al Nassr is slowly will become top 1, this is why Ronaldo is the best football player.

So true, the better thing to go to the saudi pro league and we will be nostalgic with the atmosphere of la liga when there was a duel between two GOAT. Nothing change happened to intermiami after messi in.
Intermiami is still a garbage team. Having GOAT doesn't mean a lot when it must be playing in the garbage club.

[KTChampions]

It would be interesting to see the greatest player of the Champions League again in this tournament and I would say that it is quite simple from the point of view that Portugal has 3 tickets to the Champions League and it should not be a big problem for Sporting to win one. But it seems to me that Ronaldo has other plans, he will play until the very end (without defining any year as his last) in Saudi Arabia and will end his career as soon as he is no longer able to play for the national team.

At his current age, I also think that Al Nasr will indeed be Ronaldo's last club in his football career. Because if he returns to his childhood club (Lisbon), Ronaldo will definitely be older than now and his performance will definitely decline too. Even if he returns to Lisbon, he has the opportunity to appear again in the Champions League, but in my opinion there is not yet a strong enough reason for that. Because in my opinion the possibility of Ronaldo returning to Lisbon is very unlikely. Apart from that, Ronaldo's contract with Al Nasr is still very long until 2025. Several news sites even say that Ronaldo wants to extend his contract with Al Nasr until 2027. So I don't know whether this information is true or not. However, what is certain is that Ronaldo still wants to play at Euro 2024 and the 2026 World Cup to defend his country, Portugal. So if you see that Ronaldo still wants to buy the Portuguese national team, it means that the main priority in Ronaldo's final career is clearly his country, Portugal. And perhaps club affairs will become less important to Ronaldo in the future. Because if you look at his satisfaction, Ronaldo is definitely quite satisfied with his career so far at several football clubs.

Yes, Ronaldo has no particular reason to return to the European Champions League - his position as the top scorer and best assistant there is unshakable. In the national team, his statistical advantage is also huge, but it’s probably nice to continue improving the record. Ronaldo still has many ambitions and he is trying to realize them. As for the 2026 World Cup, he probably also dreams of increasing his own record (if I remember correctly, he is the only player to score in 5 World Cups).

[Blitzboy]

Well, Sporting Lisbon will be the right place for him to end his career as a professional footballer. I also believe that Ronaldo will consider to return to Sporting Lisbon when his contract expires with Al Nassr.

Seeing how he loves his country, it is not impossible for us to see Ronaldo return to his childhood club, and interestingly Ronaldo will have a big chance to return to playing in the champions league if Sporting Lisbon can get a place to play in the tournament.

But it seems to me that Ronaldo has other plans, he will play until the very end (without defining any year as his last) in Saudi Arabia and will end his career as soon as he is no longer able to play for the national team.

The passion Ronaldo has for sport has always impressed me. He's eager to move forward even though most athletes his age have already given up. I've been watching his play very carefully, and even though his mobility has decreased, he still has excellent finishing. His superior mentality may be his greatest asset. But I have to wonder about his long-term strategy with Al Nasr. Although it looks like a cozy place, is this the best option? Ronaldo might improve Sporting's potential to qualify for the Champions League. However, after learning about his plans for Euro 2024 and the World Cup in 2026, I believe Ronaldo's pride in his country may take precedence over his club goals. Its contradicting for me as a fan, but I appreciate his decisions

In the previous match, Al Nassr had to be willing to share points with Abha Club, so that Al Nassr position was stuck in third place in the standings. I think Al Nassr will win easily with lots of goals to be scored, I think Damac can only target a draw at Al Nassr home ground, but that is very difficult to happen.

If Al Nassr won that game, they would have gotten 2 more points, which would be 21 points total for them, still the third place behind 23 points leader Al Hilal and 22 point second position Al Taewoon. That should be noted that it makes it a little harder now, but they still need to win a week when the other top two teams lose games, that would tie them for second and makes one point difference with the leader. It is not easy for the top teams to lose points, so the yare going to end up with a trouble.

I hope that they get lucky enough and end in a situation that would benefit them. It should be noted that Ronaldo keeps on scoring like crazy, but that doesn't mean that we are going to see them win just because Ronaldo is playing well, that is a good thing but that is not enough, there are 10 other players in that club and they all need to play better if they want to win the title.

It is unlikely that Sporting has any prospects in the Champions League even if they qualify for it. And if we take into account that in the new format of the Champions League the group stage will be chaos, then I don’t even know if this chaos will be interesting to anyone. In the playoffs there will still be +- the same teams and Sporting will always be the underdog among them.
Ronaldo set the trend for interest in the Saudi League and I think it’s rational to stay here, this league is developing faster than all the others (low base effect) plus with Al-Nassr Ronaldo can claim victory in all competitions, but with Sporting not.

I wouldn't bet big on this fight. Because sometimes Al-Nassr actually gets bad results when facing teams that are not favored. In the previous match, we were surprised by the draw we got against Abha. In fact, between Abha and Al-Nassr there is quite a difference in strength. But Abha was able to maintain the rhythm of the game and hold Al-Nassr to a draw.
This time Damac could do the same. Because Damac is actually stronger than Abha.

Even Al-hilal was also held to a draw by Damac. And Damac also hasn't experienced defeat in the last few matches. So this match will probably be much more difficult than we imagined.

On paper, this match should be easily won by Al Nassr, considering that the two teams have a fairly obvious gap. That doesn't mean that if Damac is able to hold Al Hilal to a draw, it will also happen in the match against Al Nassr. although, the Damac team in its 4 matches in various competitions did not experience defeat. but after all, these two teams have different levels of player depth.

Honestly I don't mean to underestimate Damac, but they are ranked 10th, and Al Nassr is in 3rd position. Luis Casto's target is to reduce the difference in points from the top of the standings, by winning his match at home to Damac this week. Moreover, based on the available odds, it is clear that Al Nassr is the favorite team to win the meeting between these two teams in Week 10. except, if Luis Castro will not play some of his core players.
The reason is, they will also play a match in the AFC Champions League against Al Duhail, after playing a match against the Damac team. and this is our problem, because we don't have a lot of the latest information that we can dig up regarding every match that will be presented in the Saudi Pro League.

Anyway, I remain optimistic that Al Nassr will win this match. especially, if we refer to the H2H meeting of the two teams.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are currently not in the same station at all however both players play on teams other than top European teams. Ronaldo and his teammates should be ready for the next game they are going to have in the Saudi League against Damac and this team can't be a hard opponent for a team like Al Nassr which means Ronaldo can have a good chance to shine in this game.
However, the rates are very low for Al Nassr in the match.

even if Al Nassr is a favorite for bookies, we still have to be careful not to place too big a bet on Al Nassr because surprises could happen, but if you look at the depth of the Al Nassr players, they are very ready to beat Damac and Ronaldo is very enthusiastic about competing soon the meeting because he knew that Damac was not an equal opponent and was confident of scoring big in the match.
betting for -2 with odds @1.70 seems very good because at least Al Nassr scores 3 or more.

Al-Nassr again gets very small odds but it's not surprising that they have several star players in them, especially so far Ronaldo has been unstoppable in continuing to score goals. Now Al-Nassr has a clear target in sight to be able to continue to catch up with the points left behind by Al-Hilal who are currently at the top of the standings with 23 points. If you look at the second H2H, Al-Nassr can always dominate with lots of wins, so it's not a difficult matter for Al-Nassr to beat Damac.

I think normal odds betting will not mean anything for Al-Nassr's victory and I quite agree that I should take a handicap bet to get better odds. But I think every time Al-Nassr hosts, Damac can always score and that makes me hesitate to bet on handicaps. So I will look for another way with a BTTS bet with odds @1.91, at least that can be a sure thing in my opinion.

To be honest if al nassr's odds in 1x2 is not even worth with the risk. The odds was very small. I would rather than pick btts for my multi instead of it. Al nassr's opponent was not too weak to be compared with al nassr. Damac can at least scories a single goal for al nassr. It seems like that majority of bettors were also doing the same thing like us. I would rather than take btts instead of al nassr win the game. The odds is not even worth with the risk.
Handicap's odds is quite better even though it's quite risky compared when we are taking 1x2 bet for al nassr. In my opinion that if btts is the sense choice for this game. I consider that if damac is not a weak or strong team.
Its performance was so average at this moment but damac can also show it as a threat for al nassr to lose three points.
