Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[beerlover]

Showmatch named after two players  The game, of course, will not have any sporting significance, but based on the venue, I can assume that the sheikhs want to see the results of their investments and the triumph of Saudi football, to begin with, at this level. I hope for a big victory for Al Nasr, maybe this will be another argument for them to move towards the European Champions League.

But what is certain is that this match will really be in the spotlight or become the center of attention for all football fans. And yes it would really succeed in bringing everyone's attention back to Arab football. Even I'm not talking about anyone else. But I also feel that I shouldn't miss watching the match. In essence, they have been successful when talking about business and attracting interest or promotion in the world. In fact, this match was also the answer to all the longings of Messi and CR7 fans who always wanted the two of them to meet on the field.

As long as Ronaldo and Messi play in national teams and in real national championships (and not in friendlies), these games will matter more in their correspondence dispute than even such friendly games where they meet on the field. But it is quite natural that this game will attract a lot of attention due to the confrontation between personal brands.

I do not think that the situation between them was as high as it is right now even 10+ years ago, I think social media played a big role in this, players do not really feel any different, in fact one of them in some Saudi league playing against nobodies mostly (except just a few teams) and the other is in USA playing against nobodies all the time, and it's really like they are just looking for money and do not care about this rival stuff at all, it's just the customers that really care about it if you ask me.

I think it should be important to note that this is going to be an important situation, and we should try to do our best when it comes down to letting the players just be happy sometimes and not really push them further.

Jose Mourinho is really a top coach who has never lost any European final except the one which he claimed he  was cheated on last season, and he still stand on his claims till this moment, well he would had been able to take Roma to a greater heights this season if only they were very financially capable of providing him with the players he desires.

 Yes, he’s left his name on the sands of time, he’s also had fall outs which majorly haven’t been because of his coaching style but majorly because tge clubs owners arent ready to pump in the cash for the squad to grow and become cohesive. If he joins a club that’s publicly funded or by a group, he’ll dominate for a while because he’ll be able to get the signings he desires dearly, a return to La Luga could be possible to let him have hands on the UCL with Real Madrid; which he desires.

When it comes to finals, especially major finals, I don't underrate the possibility strength of the experienced coach, he can sits in any big position of elite clubs in football. Any club managed by José Mourinho, he ensure he creates an impact and a memory the club and the fans won't forget in a hurry. Mourinho have manage top clubs in the past decades and he's mounts on more standard clubs this season. José Mourinho is a prominent coach and a genius, he has achieved great awards with the club's he manages in his managerial career.

Tomorrow, Al Nassr will play their match against Al Akhdood. Based on the team's ranking and overall squad depth, these two teams have quite obvious gaps. Moreover, Al Akhdood is a promotion team in the 2023/24 Saudi Pro League. On paper, Al Nassr will win this match easily. especially when referring to the betting odds for the two teams. Al Nassr with @1.13, while Al Akhdood with @16.00. It seems clear, right, if there is a clear comparison. But I'm not really sure whether Al Nassr will play with its full core of players, because in a few days Al Nassr will play a match in the AFC Champions League. even though in reality, Al Nassr is in a safe position. So if Al Nassr plays with a full squad in tomorrow's match, Ronaldo will have the opportunity to add to his goal collection. To be precise, Ronaldo will take advantage of this match to score as many goals as he can. Thus, competitors scoring goals below them will find it difficult to reduce the difference in the number of goals scored.

On the following day, Al Hilal will visit Al Hazem's headquarters. like Al Nassr, if Al Hilal is far superior to the bookies. Al Hilal with odds @1.12, while Al Hazem with @15.00. In short, the probability of these two teams winning this week's match is very high. but the issue of betting is another matter. In essence, what I want to review is after this week's match in the Saudi Pro League. In the end, the battle between Al Hilal and Al Nassr will soon be brought together. What is clear, I can't wait for the big matches in this competition. there will be a great match, between the two rivals who are competing fiercely in the competition for the trophy. So, let's look forward to this match later.

Nobody really understood what the goal of Al-Hilal was when they signed Neymar because he was still injured when they signed the contract. They must have known about all the risks and yet they decided to buy him. For PSG the deal was amazing, but to be honest who knows what that deal was really about. Everyone behind these clubs from PSG and Saudi Arabia are businessmen who might have connections elsewhere, too. I doubt that they were hoping Neymar would be as healthy as never before and play a whole season without problems. This illusion burst quickly like a soap bubble.

Maybe you forget that the main target of this league is to attract attention from all over the world so they have to recruit all famous players from several leagues and countries so don't be surprised if they are recruiting injured players, there are some players who are not worthy of playing but they are still recruited so it's easy to read their scenarios and plans.

Yes I don't forget that at all. I think that the move to sign Neymar was mainly because of his social media presence and the fact that he is from Brazil, a true soccer nation, and not so much because he could be a great player when he is healthy. But I do think that Al-Hilal was hoping for Neymar to play some least amount of time before he is injured again. This was such a short period of time and he will be gone for so long that I wonder whether many fans from Brazil now follow the Saudi Professional League because on an injured Neymar being a player of Al-Hilal.

The Brazilian is born with good footings on the ball, he does miraculous skills with the ball and some classify him as the God of skills. The reason Neymar Jr exits Parc des Princes stadium this summer was because of the booe from Les Parisiens supporters due to his incompetent performance in league matches which was obvious, he can't stand a minute because he turn out to become a flop. Al Hilal sign Neymar Jr because they saw some kind of fire in him, usually Neymar Jr presence on the pitch do serve as a big threat to opposition and he has skills that are capable of humiliating his opponents.

Messi vs Ronaldo still the best comercial thing ever in the world of football, so until they play for their antional teams and play at certain level in this kind of leagues, we are gonna see this games replicated. Right now is not other duality or competition betwen two footballers, maybe in the near future can be Mbappe against Haaland but i dont really know.

No doubt it was the most entertain competition. It could happen because both Ronaldo and Messi played in the same league. Their teams competed for the league title and the UCL title as well. Meanwhile Ronaldo and Messi were competing to be the best players between 2 best teams in La Liga. They were competing for the top scorer, MVP award, and even the Ballon d'Or status. And they are also competing in many other things outside of football. It becomes more interesting because both Ronaldo and Messi have many fanatic fans around the world. Considering these matters, I doubt there will be any other rivalry that can surpass it. Even Haaland vs Mbappe seems to have no chance to surpass the rivalry between Ronaldo and Messi. Moreover, Haaland and Mbappe play in a different league.

Maybe someday Saudi Clubs can sign both players (Haaland and Mbappe). It may be another great rivalry if it really happens.

Both Messi and Ronaldo had specific fan base in the world of football community,the interesting fact is Ronaldo had made many final trophy.But the Messi and Mbappe not win all the final game in the troppies.This was important reason for the fan base for the Ronaldo is more compared to the Messi in the football community.This two players will not replaced by any other players for next 5 years of football games.This was the reason now the clubs encouraging the Mbappe along with this two players in the community.Mbappe also creating their fan base from the younger fans of the football community.So we had huge chances for the Mbappe to replace any of this two players.

Maybe two years ago if we were talking about some players like Ronaldo and Messi in Saudi Arabia none could believe us but today we have a player like Ronaldo playing this team and on the other hand, thy are even thinking about some other famous players and coachs for the next season. Mourinho is the coach he is not in a good situation in Roma and I think Mourinho is going to be the next coach for the Saudi teams.
Mourinho is experienced enough and famous in the world to make some changes in this league after joining there.

I can see everything there is blaming Al Hial because of spending this huge amount of money for Neymar when this player couldn't even play for this team in many games.
Al Hilal bought Neymar while he was injured and knew they were hiring an injured player, also Neymar was far from his good and this player could injured more than other players because of the playing style he has.
I think the mistake of Al Hilal was clear but even Neymar getting injured could damage the team and they are still the first team of Saudi Arabia.

Mourinho aint doing well with Roma but i dont think they will let go their only coach to give them a europe title and another final in the next year due to bad start of this season. Plus if somehow Mourinho gets sacked i dont see him moving to saudi arabia. He dosent look like the coach that wants money and to move to saudi arabia. He would probobly go to another european club.

Yeah, but there are plenty more talented players, and it's usually the teams who compete against each other as they have many great players.

Having only two players as the headline is a bit too much really. It's football in the end, a sport where every team member matters.

Football fans want to see some drama between big clubs facing each others but also between top players. Messi - Cristiano Ronaldo duality was one of the longest and an interesting one until Ronaldo decided to run out of Spain. So, people are trying to find a new dual. Mbappe - Haaland seem to be a good one except it is hard to see this happening in domestic league since Mbappe is unlikely to move to EPL but we might expect Haaland moving from England to Spain if he achieve what he wants.

What is clear, I can't wait for the big matches in this competition. there will be a great match, between the two rivals who are competing fiercely in the competition for the trophy. So, let's look forward to this match later.

Yes, tomorrow Al Okhdood Club will compete against a strong team, namely Al-Nassr and I saw Al Nassr in the previous match against Al Wahda and it was won by Al-Nassr with a score of 3-1 through goals from Alex Telles, A. Alamri and Cristiano Ronaldo in 49 minutes.
and I see that Ronaldo's current performance is good because during the Euro 2024 qualifiers he also performed very well with the Portuguese team, and I also see that the Al Nassr team without Ronaldo is also very good and of course it has been tested, such as when playing at LCA against Al Duhail and when It was Al Nassr who won with a score of 2-3 and Talisca was great because he scored 3 goals.

So if add Cristiano Ronaldo to play then I think Al Nassr will have a big chance of winning, and Cristiano Ronaldo will have the opportunity to score more goals.

Al Okhdood Club in the previous match won against Al Hazm with a score of 2-1 and at that time scored two goals L Tawamba their performance was very good, but unfortunately at that time H. Almansour received a red card. and in that match, Al Okhdood Club was really lucky, even though if you look at it in terms of ball control, I saw that Al Hazm controlled more of it. I'm also really looking forward to tomorrow's match. Hopefully the match will run smoothly and well.

[Sithara007]

The odds (Al Nassr - 1.13, Al Akhdoud - 16.00) look fair, given the recent form of the two sides. Al Nassr is currently at the 2nd place in point table and they have won all 4 of their recent matches. Al Akhdoud on the other hand is at the 16th position (out of 18 teams), and out of their last 5 matches, they managed to win just one (and that win came against Al Hazm two weeks ago, thanks to goal by Cameroonian international Léandre Tawamba). Even if they win today, Al Nassr will remain at 2nd place, because Al Hilal has 35 points from 13 matches.

Mourinho aint doing well with Roma but i dont think they will let go their only coach to give them a europe title and another final in the next year due to bad start of this season. Plus if somehow Mourinho gets sacked i dont see him moving to saudi arabia. He dosent look like the coach that wants money and to move to saudi arabia. He would probobly go to another european club.

But Mourinho is quite great coach and when Roma actually fire him then it is very likely that the Saudi team will have an interest in using his services as coach.
Moreover, there are quite lot of great coaches who train the Saudi team, apart from earning large amounts of money, can also get title more easily.
If there is suitable offer I sure Mourinho might be able to accept it.

Messi vs Ronaldo are known as hot rivals when they respectively defend Barcelona and Real Madrid, these two teams always compete for the La Liga title and there are often several controversial incidents when the two teams meet.
Previously, some people thought that Messi vs Ronaldo would appear again in the SPL but apparently not, Messi instead went to play for MLS.

And of course, fans of the two teams and fans of the two players also created this kind of hype.

[len01]

The odds (Al Nassr - 1.13, Al Akhdoud - 16.00) look fair, given the recent form of the two sides. Al Nassr is currently at the 2nd place in point table and they have won all 4 of their recent matches.

Even if they win today, Al Nassr will remain at 2nd place, because Al Hilal has 35 points from 13 matches.

Its fair enough that Al Nassr is the favorite in this match while Al Okhdood is in a very bad condition at the moment and if we choose to bet on Al Nassr we will definitely only get very small odds and I recommend that anyone bet with other options with higher odds a little bigger.

and for myself I will choose to bet on 1st half - 1x2 Al Nassr with odds @1.47 because I am sure that the first goal will be scored Al Nassr in the first half and we all know how Ronaldo and Talisca are currently performing, they are in very strong condition and have the desire to chase points from Al Hilal so that Ronaldo will make the best use it when competing against teams from the bottom of the standings.

There will be no replication for those guys. you will be only able to have 1 messi and 1 ronaldo in the world. Let those guys become themselves. The era for messi and ronaldo have gone even though i must admit that if messi and ronaldo are real GOAT.
We are in the new era and the new players will have their own characteristics. We have new players to become the next GOAT.

[klidex]

Today we will watch the match
Al-Taawon vs Al Riyadh
Al Ettifaq vs Ittihad

Of course, this is a fairly easy match for Al Taawon facing a promoted club and I am sure Al Taawon will achieve victory in this match to improve their position even though recently Al Taawon has not had results as expected but I am sure Al Taawon will not make mistakes like that. previously.

the match between Al Ettifaq vs Ittihad will be a match that is quite difficult to predict because these clubs are both struggling to be at the top of the rankings. Ettifaq is in good condition recently, Ittihad also just got a win over Abha, talking about Ettihad this club is experiencing This season's performance is not very stable, unlike last season, I think Ettifaq will take advantage of Ittihad's opportunity, which is experiencing inconsistency and will shift Ittihad's position if they succeed in winning this match.

I will missed the GOAT era, though I'm opportune to watch these players played on the pitch. The GOAT debate have come to an end because the era of Messi and Ronaldo is over after both players left European football. True facts, there will be no players that would be able to blend in the incredible competition open by these great players or any players that can mount the good and impossible records set by the club. Comparing Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe, ofcourse these players don't stand a chance to replenish the memories innovated and cave in the minds of football lovers.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Al Ettifaq vs Ittihad[/b]

This match is going to be very competitive. Although before  the start of the season I thought these two teams would fight for the title. But at the moment the performances of both the teams are erratic. And the  two teams have no chance of winning the title. However, this match is crucial for both to move towards the top of the points table.

Ittihad's squad is quite strong.  They have Benzema and Romarinho is  in their  attack, talented players like Kante and Fabinho in midfield. Despite having a lot of talented players in the squad, their performances have been erratic. It is difficult to predict which team will win this match. Because both team players are now off form. But my favorite will be Ittihad team.

[Uruhara]

Al Ettifaq vs Ittihad

Of course, this is a fairly easy match for Al Taawon facing a promoted club and I am sure Al Taawon will achieve victory in this match to improve their position even though recently Al Taawon has not had results as expected but I am sure Al Taawon will not make mistakes like that. previously.

Ettifaq is in good condition recently, Ittihad also just got a win over Abha, talking about Ettihad this club is experiencing This season's performance is not very stable, unlike last season, I think Ettifaq will take advantage of Ittihad's opportunity, which is experiencing inconsistency and will shift Ittihad's position if they succeed in winning this match.

But I think after Al-ittihad fired their coach their squad turned out to be better. Even Benzema looks better. In essence, Al-ittihad's previous poor performance seemed to be due to a mismatch between the coach and players. Because after the dismissal occurred, Al-ittihad seemed to return to its best performance. But against Al-ETtifaq, which both have top European players, it will certainly be very difficult to predict. But we have to see who hosts this match. And it turned out that the host was Al-ettifaq. So it is true that maybe Al-ittihad will have difficulty in this match.

For the Al-Taawoun vs Al-riyadh match, of course Al-Taawoun will be the favorite. And I wouldn't hesitate to bet on that fight.
