Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Uruhara]

Al-Ahli failed to establish a home advantage after only playing out a goalless draw against Al-Shabab. This is a consecutive draw for Al-Ahli after previously they also got the same result against Damac. In fact, these two teams are quite evenly matched, although Al-Ahli is favored because they have better squad depth. But Al-Ahli also couldn't make good use of this and ultimately kept them stuck in 3rd position. Now Al-Ittihad and Al-Taawoun, who are starting to stalk them right below them, are only 2 points apart and next week of course if they still get if the results are not good, the two teams will easily be replaced.

SPL is a difficult one but most people viewed it to be a simple league with European players scoring goals on different levels. Al Ahli are struggling just like any other team that does have challenges this season, they're currently in significant position but that doesn't stop them from competing for the real points, winning becomes priority only when a team is stable in brilliant performance and not the other way round. Al Ahli are not just consistent in league games and that's definitely recording a poor stats for them in their previous league matches.

Being held to a draw by Al-Shabab is actually not that surprising. Because Al-Shabab can sometimes always overwhelm strong teams when facing them. Examples include Al-ittihad and Al-Fateh who even had to be willing to accept defeat by Al-Shabab. It could be said that Al-Shabab is currently in pretty good confidence.

Al-Ahli does have better squad depth than Al-Shabab. But all of that cannot be a guarantee of winning the match. Because sometimes when a team's strategy can be read well by the opponent, even with good players, sometimes the strategy will be less effective. Al-Shabab seems to be studying every strategy that the strong teams in the SPL have. So it's not surprising if they get pretty good results when facing a strong team.

I think a suitable opponent for Alhilal is Al Nassr, which of course is currently in 2nd place in the standings, and I want to see Cristiano Ronaldo and his friends play against Al Hilal. But if you look at the last 5 matches, Al Hilal is always superior and the cooperation between Al Hilal players is so strong and solid. I can't wait to watch Al Nassr's match against Alhilal on Saturday the 2nd. I think Al Nassr coach Luis Castro must use good technique to be able to fight Al-Hilal.

Al Nassr and Al Hilal are fighting for this title in the Saudi league. Al Ahli, third in the table, are far behind. Al Ahli is 11 points behind Al Hilal. And at the moment it is impossible for Al Ahli to close this 11 point gap. If Al Hilal lose the truck and drop points in 4/5 matches in a row then maybe Al Ahli has a chance to go top of the points table.

In the last few matches we have only seen consistent performances from Al Nassr and Al Hilal. And the players of these two teams are playing well. Although Al Hilal's star player Neymar is out due to injury, Mitrovic is performing well. Al Nassr's Ronaldo, on the other hand, is in great form. He scored 15 goals in 13 matches. The two teams will continue to compete for the title till the end of the season.

I think Al Hilal will be difficult to beat so being, Al ahli it will be difficult to be ranked at the top and of course getting 11 points is not an easy thing.

in the 2022, 2023 season, at that time Al Ittihad was the champion and indeed at that time their performance was very good, but Al Nassr was in second place while Al-Hilal was in third place but now Al Nassr is still in second place because Indeed, Al Nassr is a strong team, but up to now Al Nassr's standings are still unable to surpass Al Hilal. because Al-Hilal's performance is getting better, that's why when they play against Al Hazm they can score so many goals because I saw that when Al Hazm played against Al Hilal in the King's Cup of Saudi Arabia, the score was 3-0, of course it's not far even though they lost, not like now with a score of 0-9. I think the score is very far away.
Yes, it's a shame that Neymar didn't play because he was injured. I think if Neymar played of course Al Hilal would be stronger because Neymar is a great player, but fortunately A. Mitrovic and Mohamed Kanno are performing well. So Al Hilal is still a strong team to this day.

Al Hilal, Al Ahli, Al Nassr and Ittihad all have strong squads this season. They spent a lot of money and added several star players from Europe to their squad. Even then the teams are not performing as expected. But we have to admit that this year's Saudi Pro Ligue has been very competitive and crowded compared to previous seasons.
 
It will be much more difficult for AL Nassr to take away the top spot in the points table from Al Hilal. Because Al Hilal is a team that has not lost a single match this season. They are performing well in every match.

I am looking forward to watching the Al Nassr vs AL Hilal match in the first week of December. If AL Nassr can win this match then they will have a chance to go to the top of the points table. But if they lose the points in this match, the top spot in the table will be occupied by Al Hilal.

[Solokan]

Al Hilal doesn't seem to want to waste the opportunity to win with a big score when facing a fairly weak team like Al Hazm. Al Hilal controlled the entire match and Mitrovic managed to score 1 goal and 1 assist, but if he plays until the end of the match there is a chance to score more goals to get closer to the number of goals that Ronaldo has scored this season.

With Al Hilal's consistent performance, it is very possible that they will ensure the title early, especially next week. If they can beat Al Nassr, it will make their point advantage even bigger, but this is still too early and Al Nassr certainly has to be able to win against Al Hilal if they want to reduce the difference in points with the leader of the standings

Al Hilal's performance was very surprising, and the players scored a lot of goals, and Al Hilal did not lower the tempo of the game even though they had scored a lot of goals and in terms of attack I was also amazed and I saw the 4-2-3-1 .formation that was used Al Hilal is very good because it creates a strong defense, but because it has reliable attackers it makes the attack look neat and of course it will make it difficult for Al Hazm to penetrate Al Hilal's my see Al Hilal players like they are having a party on the field because they keep scoring goals.

Later at the King Fahd Stadium we will see who will win the match, whether Al Nassr will slaughter Al Hilal or Al Hilal will slaughter Al Nassr. but in this match I find it difficult to bet, but I bet that Al Nassr will win against Al Hilal. I think Cristiano Ronaldo will give his best performance as will A. Mitrovic Mohamed Kanno M. Al-Qahtani.
and Malcom who contributed 3 goals against Al Hazm.

SPL is a difficult one but most people viewed it to be a simple league with European players scoring goals on different levels. Al Ahli are struggling just like any other team that does have challenges this season, they're currently in significant position but that doesn't stop them from competing for the real points, winning becomes priority only when a team is stable in brilliant performance and not the other way round. Al Ahli are not just consistent in league games and that's definitely recording a poor stats for them in their previous league matches.

Because teams ranked 10th or below do not have equal strength with teams ranked 10th and above, there is still a lot of power imbalance if we look at what has happened so far. But so far the SPL has become a better league with more competitive competition compared to the previous season competition. Many top European stars joining the SPL team will provide interesting developments in every match they play. This season, everyone probably won't miss the matches played by Al Nassr and Al Hilal because these two teams have so far stolen the attention of football fans in every match they have played.

For the competition for the title this season, I think Al Nassr will be able to achieve it because they are in quite impressive condition with the good performance of Cristiano Ronaldo. Al Hilal, who have long occupied the top ranking as leaders of the standings, are starting to feel pressure every week because Al Nassr continues to follow suit by performing well in every match.

[Arenga pinnata]

As one of the promotional teams this season, Al-Ahli is extremely famous because they managed to get several contract signatures from European star players such as Firminho, Mahrez, Mendy and others. But this team sometimes loses control in important matches that they should be able to maximize well and in the end they lose full points again like this.

The title competition currently still belongs to Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr considering the difference is only 4 points and meanwhile for Al-Ahli or Al-Ittihad to get to that place they have to collect at least 10 more additional points. It is indeed natural to see that Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad will be in the same place and perhaps both of them will have to improve their existing consistency because this has been going on for almost half the season.

Only being able to get 2 points from the last two matches which should have been easy matches for Al-Ahli was really surprising. Because Damac and Al-Shabab are actually not very consistent this season. But these two teams can always make strong teams share points with them. Damac once held Al-hilal and al-taawoun to a draw. Meanwhile, Al-Shabab once defeated Al-ittihad. So it seems that these two teams cannot be underestimated this season. Even though Damac and Al-Shabab are only ranked 10th and 11th, so far these are the only teams that have always been able to handle the top class teams to not getting full points.

Al-Ahli has just been promoted back to the Saudi Pro League. But all fans have high hopes for Al-Ahli who have acquired many top European players in the last transfer market. And actually Al-Ahli's current position can still be said to be quite good. Because Al-Ahli can still be ranked 3rd. And if Al-Ahli can win the match against Al-Shabab then maybe Al-Ahli can also get close to Al-Nassr and Al-hilal. But it looks like Al-Ahli wasted it. Because currently Al-Nassr and Al-hilal seem to be more comfortable competing for the title after the teams ranked 3rd and below failed to get maximum points in the last two matches.

Al Ahli and Al Ittihad, these two teams have experienced a relative decline in performance in the last 5 matches, even for Al Ittihad they tend to be inconsistent so far which makes it increasingly difficult for them to compete with Al Nassr and Al Hilal. Well, by the way, Al Ahli also did not maximize the opportunities they had when facing lower ranked teams because they failed to get maximum points. Al Ahli is indeed much better compared to other big teams because they are a promoted team but can be ranked in the top 3 but still if the quality of their players is strong enough and it is a shame that the previous 2 matches ended in a draw.

Benzema also experienced big difficulties in his first season with Al Ittihad because he was a big name player and was quite active in scoring goals at Real Madrid but in his new team it seemed like he needed time to show his best qualities. Maybe I think Benzema needs a stronger partner for their front line and that will be something that Al Ittihad management has to think about in this winter transfer window.

and Malcom who contributed 3 goals against Al Hazm.

Al Hilal's goal productivity is truly amazing. Al Hilal really humiliated the home team with a score of 9:0 without reply. Al Hazm is a weak team that is at the bottom of the Saudi league standings, but we all did not expect that Al Hilal would slaughter Al Hazm in that match. , Al Hilal strikers all scored Malcom scored 3 goals for Al Hilal in this match he really had a party on the field 😂

in the Al Hilal vs Al Nassr match, it is a very fierce match, both clubs are in good condition but Al Hilal not received defeat so far, therefore Al Nassr must prepare for this match carefully. Al Nassr must strengthen their defense line so as not to concede easily and strengthen their attack line to slaughter the host defense of Al Hilal. I really can't wait for this big match when Ronaldo carries out a deadly attack at Al Hilal's home ground.

Benzema also experienced big difficulties in his first season with Al Ittihad because he was a big name player and was quite active in scoring goals at Real Madrid but in his new team it seemed like he needed time to show his best qualities. Maybe I think Benzema needs a stronger partner for their front line and that will be something that Al Ittihad management has to think about in this winter transfer window.

Benzema seems to need more time to adapt to his new club. Just like Cristiano Ronaldo, who also didn't immediately appear impressive last season when he just joined Al-Nassr. And at the end of last season, Cristiano Ronaldo was also able to adapt better and become more comfortable playing for Al-Nassr. And the peak of this season is that Cristiano Ronaldo is getting better at Al-Nassr, especially after Mane arrived and Talisca also got better and can work well with Cristiano Ronaldo.

Maybe as you said, Al-ittihad needs to bring in new players to accompany Benzema on the front lines. And I heard the news that Al-ittihad will be targeting the current Liverpool striker, namely M. Salah. But it's not just Al-ittihad who want M. Salah, because reportedly Al-hilal also wants M. Salah in the January transfer market. So it seems that we will see competition between the two big SPL clubs in the upcoming transfer market. But I'm not sure whether M. Salah will be interested in joining an Arab club at this time. Because it seems like he is still really needed there.

[Leviathan.007]

We already talked this , but yes this season is only between Alnassr and Al Hilal, but i want to rush into the next one, because in the next one with more reinforcement arriving from europe from top quality and more teams solid, we can have an amazing tournament with easily 6 teams fighting.

Even after the good performance I see from Al Hilal in this season, I hope to see Al Nassr winning the title in the Saudi Arabia because Ronaldo joined this team to achieve a title in the Saudi League and Asian and maybe this will be his last achievement during his career, However, the results Al Hilal got was amazing and this can be very hard to beat this team with the current situation they have.

Al-Shabab seems to be studying every strategy that the strong teams in the SPL have. So it's not surprising if they get pretty good results when facing a strong team.

The score that Al Shahab produced when facing Al Ahli was very surprising because their standings were different, Al Ahli was in 3rd place while Al Shabab was in 11th place. But your answer is also correct because in that match it seemed like Al Shabab competed with full confidence. but in my opinion, it could also be due to the luck factor that Al Shabab got, because even though they compete with a strong team, it is possible that the lower ranked team can win or draw, but if you look at the match between Al Shahab who competed with Al Fateh and won the match, Plus, by playing a draw against Al Ahli, I don't think this is a coincidence, but Al Shabab is indeed a team that is performing well. So I think Al Shabab could rise in the rankings if they continue to win consistently. I think to see whether al Shabab's strength is strong or not, we have to first look at the upcoming match. Al Shabab will play against al Taawon on December 3. and the standings are certainly very different, I can't wait to see the strength of the two teams.

Currently, I'm sure there are many people here who have the same hopes as you. Namely, we hope that Al-Nassr can win the title this season and CR7 can lift the trophy with his friends at Al-Nassr. And yes, that would be an extraordinary achievement for Cristiano Ronaldo at his no longer young age. Maybe the best opportunity is only in this season. Because next season, when Cristiano Ronaldo will be 39 and turning 40, his performance will definitely not be the same as now. I doubt he can continue to maintain his best performance. Because it is very rare for a football player to still appear impressive when he is almost 40 years old.

But we have to admit that Al-hilal's current performance seems to be very difficult to stop. In fact, I am still a little doubtful about the next match, namely next week when Al-Hilal will face Al-Nassr. I will stand on the side of Al-Nassr just like most of the people here. And I hope Al-Nassr can win even if only by a narrow score.

They're in a big spot, but their lack of stability is a big problem. When the January transfer window opened, I think they will miss a great chance. Their recent performances show that they failed to strengthen their squad. Without a stronger team, they dropped critical points in the last two matches. Their problems go beyond the players' skills, in my opinion. Their use matters more. Yes, they have potential, but they're not using it. If they could constantly pull out their top players, Al Ahli would play differently.

[KTChampions]

Even after the good performance I see from Al Hilal in this season, I hope to see Al Nassr winning the title in the Saudi Arabia because Ronaldo joined this team to achieve a title in the Saudi League and Asian and maybe this will be his last achievement during his career, However, the results Al Hilal got was amazing and this can be very hard to beat this team with the current situation they have.

I would also like Al-Nasr to win the title this season and the point is not that I am a fan of Ronaldo, but that the dominance of one club is not interesting. Al-Hilal have won something like 7 titles out of the last 8 seasons. It would be sad if, after the Saudi League began to develop so quickly and such large investments were made, the situation did not change at all and Al-Hilal continued to dominate.

That's going to happen only if al hilal will able to lose lots of points. It sounds impossible for al nassr will able to surpass al hilal but who knows. All Al Hilal needs is three points to win the league at any point before the season concludes.
Al nassr has been showing amazing performance especially for ronaldo. This guy is just proving it many times that if age was just number for him. Al nassr can also win the league only if al hilal will be making some mistakes.
The only problem al hilal becomes even more solid than before. This is also creating a new problem for al nassr if al hilel will keep winning the upcoming games.

Definitely it is not an easy task for Al-Nassr with the consistency that Al-Hilal shows in this season. But if we look at the result in the last 5 matches, there is no chance to underestimate anyone. Although  Al-Nassr is performing well at the moment. Especially the way Ronaldo scored the goal in last Friday's match was worth watching. Usually such goals are not visible. The way Ronaldo scored the goal from such a distance is remembered as a special goal for the viewers. Through which he will seem more lively this season. But it's true that if Al Hilal don't make any mistakes, they will be hard to beat.

Actually, I myself do not matter who will be the champion later, but I hope that the club that can win the title is not easy to get it, but there is very tight competition. For example in the Bundesliga last season, although a little something was missing because it was still Bayern Munich who became champions. But overall I'm very satisfied with what happened there. Even the determination of who will win the title is determined in their last match. That's what I want to see in a league, there's intense competition that makes the league more exciting.

Al Nassr opportunity is still open to win the SPL trophy at the end of the season, because we can see that there are still many matches remaining that have not been played. For Al Hilal it was a good result, and in my opinion they can drop points in the next 20 matches. The current point difference is only 4, which means that if Al Nassr continues to be consistent, they can overtake Al Hilal if they experience one defeat and one draw. Now is the time for them to try to do their best, I mean beating Al Hilal in week 15, that's the best time if Ronaldo and his colleagues realize the importance of this match. if they succeed then they will only be separated by 1 point. I will try to follow this SPL big match, to see how ambitious both of them are in the fight for 3 points.

Ronaldo keeps remaining a phenomenon for the Al Hilal side. No doubt the team has improved and in a better way as compared to the when Ronaldo wasn't signed.
Am more impressed with the way the team has got to understand his runs and can project the ball into empty spaces where it is likely Ronaldo might be.

With more stars being introduced, I believe the Arabian league will be one hot league to hook onto even on the weekends.

For example in the Bundesliga last season, although a little something was missing because it was still Bayern Munich who became champions. But overall I'm very satisfied with what happened there. Even the determination of who will win the title is determined in their last match. That's what I want to see in a league, there's intense competition that makes the league more exciting.

The clubs other than al hilal have not been making significant improvements. Their performance was nothing short of impressive, however, they encountered the setback of running out of fuel during the middle of the season. Look at ettifaq and ittihad. These clubs are performing terribly this season unlike al nassr and al hilal. Many people have been claiming that Al Ittihad would be the toughest competitor for Al Hilal, but their predictions are completely incorrect. We needs real proof. There will be some clubs to use winter transfer window to strengthen its squad.
I hope that some clubs will able to buy more european players. The clubs of Al Ittihad, Ettifaq, and Ahli are all in agreement that they must make substantial improvements in their performance. Al hilal is the strongest team right now even though this club didn't recruit lots of european players.
Ettifaq and ittihad have chances to make their come back soon as long as they were recruiting proper players to play on the squad. Ettifaq needs to sack gerrard too as a coach.

As you can see that if wijnaldum and henderson will be playing against al ittihad. Seeing how bad the performance from gerrard in managing ettifaq made me feel he may be sacked by the club if he suffers another lose.

Benzema will be working so hard to perform a bit better to beat ettifaq. Ittihad shall not miss three points again. winning against ettifaq is a must.

The match was the two teams playing very carefully and the statistics of the game were balanced. Gerrard is not classified as bad in managing al-Ettifaq. It's just that some obstacles that might make it difficult to get points in every Al-Ettifaq game.
Wijnaldum and Henderson played pretty well in the midfield in the match which became the midfield of the two teams. At the end of the match, Wijnaldum was the best player for the match.

It seems like those matches will be getting draw.

Appropriate results. Because both are equally strong to try to get maximum results.

I think for any coach who comes from Europe it is quite a significant change and required adaptations to improve a team that is not as talented as the average team from the Premier League. There are some automatic things that you think you can expect from the players, but this is not the case in Saudi Arabia as much as it is the case in England or many of the other European countries where the football education for kids starts at the youngest ages on the highest level. But I think Gerrard can become a great coach over time. Now he decided to earn a lot of money first.

The difference in player quality is a determining factor for coaches to adjust strategies and currently there are not many coaches from Europe who have joined the Saudi league. So far Steven Gerrard with Al-Ettifaq is going quite well and he is able to manage the existing squad according to the needs of the Saudi league. The presence of experienced players like Henderson and Wijnaldum also helps make Steven Gerrard's job easier. Steven Gerrard's focus is only to make a lot of money and if we look at his career managing teams in Europe, of course it was a failure for him.

Coaches want success, of course but I think that it is obvious when someone line Gerrard signs a contract with a team from Saudi Arabia that it is not about success in the first place. It is the money. Wouldn't every potential former professional player dream of coaching in their home country when we are talking about England. Having young English talents and so on, but this move was primarily to make money, which is ok, why not. But in the future I am interested in seeing how he will do in a big league because I think Gerrard really can go places as a coach. He has a great motivational impact on players. He had that as a player and probably as a coach as well.
