Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Stepstowealth]

the league is getting much more competitive this season, looking at the table:

This is exactly what the Saudi Arabians were expecting to get and they are getting it. They wanted a competitive league and it is what they are having this season. The point difference between the top teams is very small that everything can quickly change. Ronaldo made the assist for Talisca to score the first goal, and then he scored himself through a penalty to help Al Nassr continue winning games. Al Nassr may win the Saudi league this season because of the determination of Ronaldo to keep scoring and winning games for the club.

Al Hilal which is currently at the top of the league table after having goal from the Koulibaly in second half, and we have still 20 minutes left in this game which is surely very interesting because Al Shabab is trying their best for equalizer as both teams are having good history of draw matches but now can Al Hilal end with the win because this win is going to give them top spot for few weeks with Al Ittihad having draw match which bring them down from top to second spot.

Al Nassr is also having good time with four matches winning streak which bring them to the fourth spot, and now we are going to have tough fight for the title between these top clubs which spend huge funds for the top players.

It would be natural for Al Hilal to be able to defeat the opposing team in this match, and it would be a shame if Neymar failed to take the penalty kick. fortunately, he provided an assist in exchange for failing to score. Starting from a corner kick, Koulibaly was able to take advantage of a pass from Neymar which made Al Hilal's first goal.
Based on statistics, the Al Shabab team put up quite a fight but they didn't have many chances. Of the 9 attempted shots, only 1 was on target. in fact, they don't have much of a chance.

In contrast to Al Hilal, they have 23 per shot attempt, 8 on target, 6 big chances. Koulibaly scored a goal in the 66th minute, while Mitrovic in the 76th minute. It's a shame Neymar hasn't managed to score a goal while he was defending Al Hilal. As for his penalty shot, it was saved by the Al Shabab goalkeeper. However, Nyemar's performance was quite impressive, he made 69 touches in 90 minutes. one assist, 38 accurate passes, 6 chances, and so on.With this result, Al Hilal is again at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings. only 1 point adrift of Al Ittihad and Al Taawoun and 2 points adrift of Al Nassr who are in 4th place.
Well, this league is getting more exciting in its competition. Every week, changes to the top of the standings can occur. and yep, quite interesting.

It's hard to say whether Neymar had a good performance in Al Hilal or not. Because we know he lost a penalty kick at the beginning of the game and losing that penalty kick definitely could affect the result of this game but he had the effect of both goals for Al Hilal today.
After winning this game against Al Shabab, Al Hial is in first place on the table with one one-point gap between themself and Al Ittehad.

Yeah you are right, competition is getting tougher we cannot yet determine who will become champion because several teams have the same chance
But of course Al-Nassr is of concern to all of us because its performance is increasingly stable and consistent and Al-Hilal may be the main competitor
I just checked the top scorers list I'm not surprised to see Ronaldo on the top scorer list but I'm surprised to see Ronaldo on the top assist list 

[snipie]

Didnt expect al tawoon at such a high place at all. But this is what makes football so intresting that and underdog team can make a difference. Al Nassr also made a good comeback but Al hilal is still the favorite and they are first and thats what matter for them currently.

Al-Hilal is topping everyone but if they miss 2 points for example, they risk to see a bunch of teams jumping in front of them.
Al-Tawoun and Al-Ettifaq are annoying the other teams that invested a lot more. Al-Ettifaq will face tomorrow Al-Ahli in an away game which will be interesting. I think Al-Ahli are favourite but who knows

It seems Ronaldo is not in a good situation with his team in Saudi League. We know this palyer was usually playing on the top European team and he was playing where he had hoped to win the title in any league was playing for. But this time they couldn't have a good performance compared to other teams like Al Hilal and I think there is even the chance for Ronaldo to leave for Al Nassr if they don't win the title this season because this can definitely put this famous palyer under more pressure. However, Ronaldo is not alone in Al Nassr and there are other famous players there like Mane and Otávio they should keep winning the games to decrease the gap between themselves and Al Hilal.

Al Nassr was able to get full points from today's match against Al Ta'ee where Cr7 et al managed to show quite an impressive game in this match because they were able to dominate the game. Ronaldo was also an important actor in Al Nassr's victory in this match because Ronaldo, apart from scoring 1 goal, also contributed 1 assist for Talisca's goal. Even Ronaldo had many opportunities in this match but unfortunately he failed to complete the many opportunities he had.

I checked the standings table where Al Nassr had risen to the top 4 rankings, collecting 18 points from the 8 matches they played. So far the top 4 teams seem to have shown strong enough competitiveness to become leaders of the standings every week. I believe Al Nassr has a big chance of continuing to improve their ranking in the standings because they are able to maintain their performance as well as possible after recording consecutive wins.

Without a penalty that is a winning goal for Al Nassr, Cristiano will be considered having a bad match because he wasted many opportunities in the match. So if they had ended the match with a draw, Cristiano would have been responsible for his bad finishing in the match. One goal and one assist sound to be good stats and contributions from Ronaldo if we don't look at the match overview.

Congratulations Cristiano for a great exit in the game and his team has started seeing lights to compete for the league trophy.

It is an impressive climb up of Al Nassr after they lost first two matches. 2 points less than Al Hilal at the top is not too far. They will have next two matches with not too strong opponents and can get six points in maximum. Al Hilal got three points in this week with one assist from Neymar but the Brazilian player missed one penalty while Al Ittihad got one point without Karim Benzema by his injury.

[Franctoshi]

This year's Saudi League has become very competitive. Al Hilal, ittihad, AL Nassr, Ettifaq and Al Ahli are all performing well. And each has a squad worthy of winning the title. Saudi League is slowly becoming very crowded.

Obviously, the league is becoming very interesting to watch and competitive the more especially when you see these best players that moved into the league lately, Neymar, and Ronaldo play in these clubs, their presence in the team is definitely gonna help boost the strength and performances of these clubs the more, and hence draws attention of viewers and supporters of these players and clubs which result to the stadium being crowded as ever experienced.

[Strongkored]

Ittihad FC could only draw against Al Feiha, which was quite detrimental for them because their competitor Al Hilal was actually able to win against Al Shabab so the standings changed again.
There were no goals in the Ittihad FC vs. Al Feiha match, and this was the first match where Ittihad faced difficulties in scoring goals even though they had more than 60% possession of the ball but that didn't allow them to score goals, there were quite a lot of opportunities but unfortunately, they all failed to become wasted
And Al Hilal won quite convincingly in the home match against Al Shabab, which cannot be said to be a weak team, Neymar has not scored a goal, but Mitrovic managed to make himself a quite productive striker in every Al Hilal match.

[BRINIRHA]

Al Nassr has won 6 matches in a row, still the team is placed fourth in the points table . They are playing very well.  But going to the top of the table is very difficult for the team.
Ittihad failed to score 3 points in today's match. And so the team lost the top spot in the points table after a long time.  The second place in the table is now ittihad. They even have the possibility of losing the second place.
Today's
Neymar's Al hilal won one of the most important matches of the day.  And the team topped the points table for the first time . But neymar missed the penalty in this match. Al Hilal's two star players Mitrovic and Koulibaly scored in this match. Neymar managed to make an assist.
This year's Saudi League has become very competitive. Al Hilal, ittihad, AL Nassr, Ettifaq and Al Ahli are all performing well. And each has a squad worthy of winning the title. Saudi League is slowly becoming very crowded.

Talking about Al-Nassr, I feel that Al-Nassr's front line is really getting sharper. And I am always impressed with Talisca who can always position herself well so that she can receive assists from CR7 very well and score goals. Sadio Mane didn't have many chances to shoot against Al-Taee. But he supports CR7 very well. In essence, the harmonization of Al-Nassr players is getting better from week to week. And now Al-Nassr is slowly rising to a higher rank.

Al-Ittihad was only able to collect 1 point because they were held to a draw by Al-Feiha. But I was surprised by Al-Taawoun's performance which continues to show positive results this season. Al-Taawoun also got 3 points in yesterday's match against al-Hazm.
Meanwhile, Al-Hilal was finally able to reclaim first place from Al-Ittihad. Neymar has not scored a goal since joining Al-Hilal. He only made 2 assists. Maybe he has to adapt a little longer. different from Sadio Mane at Al-Nassr who adapted quickly.

the league is getting much more competitive this season, looking at the table:



looking at the small difference in points between the big teams, it shows that the team that loses points in games against small teams, will then lose the chance to become champion this season, Al - Nassr has an easy game against Abha which is a team that in the last 5 games has not managed to achieve good results, and in 5 games they have only managed to win 1 game and will come to the game against Al - Nassr coming from 3 consecutive defeats, so I see Al - Nassr winning this game with some ease . but before that game Al - Nassr will have a game in the AFC champions league, so if they have an important player getting injured then it could affect a lot in the next game in the Saudi Arabian league

AI - Hilal will also have a very easy game, they will play against an opponent that in the last 5 games they have only won once and will also come into this game with 2 consecutive defeats and so I also hope to see Al - Hilal coming out with an easy victory in this game. now Al - ltthad's situation will be different from the other 2 big teams, because they will play against an opponent who has had an acceptable performance, and in the last 5 games they have only lost in 2 games and can achieve at least a draw in the game against Al - ltthad. In my opinion, I see the game being very difficult to predict the result and a defeat for Al - ltthad in this game could open up space for Al - Nassr to stay in second place. I highly doubt that Al - Hilal will lose the first position anytime soon

I would like to see al ahli to be placed at the that top places along with those clubs. Ahli seems still the only club that performing so badly till this time even thought the club has bought so many great players. Ettifaq and ahli placed under ettifaq.
I hope that ahli will also able to enter into the top 4 but it's quite surprising me to see how taawon was able sitting at the third place even though this club was not buying european players massively like other club i.e al nassr, itthad and ahli.
Ronaldo has been successfully scoring through penalty which is also nicreasing his total goal for the current season. Im feeling that if ronaldo will always sit to be the top scorer this seaosn.
Nassr can try even harder in taking the first place again since ronaldo was still on fire.

[len01]

the moment it is a little difficult to determine who will lead the SPL this season, while the competition in the top 6 of the standings is still very competitive, it is not yet clear which team is superior with more points, even though Al Taawon last season was not a candidate to become the leader of the SPL, but we can see how is the improvement of Al Taawon currently, which in terms of performance is ready to become challenger and a strong contender for other teams and I am sure that everything will be seen after Al Hilal, Ittihad and Al Nassr get more points and give slightly bigger difference and after there big point difference Its very clear that the team will take the lead but for now it seems too early to speculate about all this.

Competition between clubs ranked 1 to 6 in the top is currently quite fierce. Because the difference in points is very small, changes can occur quickly.
For example, Al-ittihad, which currently has 18 points and is ranked 1st, of course they could be pushed back this week. Because the difference in points with Al-Hilal is also only 1 point. And with Al-Taawoun it is also only 2 points different.

I would not be surprised if Al-Taawoun competes closely at the top of the standings this season. Because the same thing happened last season. And last season Al-Taawoun was able to end the season ranked 5th.
What surprised me about Al-Taawoun was that they don't have as many star players from Europe as other clubs who are currently ranked at the top have. Al-Taawoun has European players but not as many as other clubs in the top rankings. But seeing Al-Taawoun able to compete fiercely is indeed something that should be appreciated.

as I said before, competitive competition will continue as long as one of the teams continues to win consistently and I also said a few days ago that from this competitive competition there will always be a change in position and it turns out that Al Hilal is back to leading the SPL for a while and Its a shame that Ittihad failed to get a score against Al Feiha while Al Nassr, Al Taawon and Al Hilal managed to get additional points from yesterday match.



unfortunately I forgot not to add Al Hilal to my betting slip even though it was very profitable even though I had small odds on each team but I also bet on other leagues so the odds I got were a little bigger but still with a small risk for me and maybe next time I will slightly predict the matches Abha vs Al Riyadh, Al Raed vs Al Akhdoud and Al Fateh vs Wahda.

After losing their first two league games, Al-Nasasr has recovered well, winning six straight league games and nine in a row overall across all competitions. With only two points separating them at this point, the Saudi Pro League is starting to get more interesting to watch. Additionally, Al-Nasasr still has a chance to advance because of their recent strong play following their season's opening two losses.

AI - Hilal will also have a very easy game, they will play against an opponent that in the last 5 games they have only won once and will also come into this game with 2 consecutive defeats and so I also hope to see Al - Hilal coming out with an easy victory in this game.

Al-Hilal will likely have 100% performance in their next four to five league games as the opponents they are playing against are not among the top teams in the league, and they have good winning records against them all.

now Al - ltthad's situation will be different from the other 2 big teams, because they will play against an opponent who has had an acceptable performance, and in the last 5 games they have only lost in 2 games and can achieve at least a draw in the game against Al - ltthad. In my opinion, I see the game being very difficult to predict the result and a defeat for Al - ltthad in this game could open up space for Al - Nassr to stay in second place. I highly doubt that Al - Hilal will lose the first position anytime soon

This is the situation in most leagues that determines the team that can compete for the title. If Al-Itthad escapes this with maximum points, then we should be hoping for strong competition between them and Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr.

[Gallar]

The first half had a few minutes left in stoppage time and now Al Nassr were a goal up through Talisca's 32nd minute goal. It looked like they would really end the game with a win if nothing happened to hurt them.
They had the ball and created a few chances, but they mustn't forget about their defense, as AL Taee also posed a few threats that they could have conceded. They can't afford to let their guard down, and if they do, Al Taee will punish them with a goal of their own.

Talisca scored another goal before the end of the first half but the referee disallowed it for offside. Mane and Brozovic are playing well. Talisca and Ronaldo are getting into scoring positions. Al Nassr will probably win this match. I don't think there will be any surprises in the result of this match. Al Nassr wins this match and continues to follow Al Ittihad. Also in the first half of the match, Ronaldo scored an elegant volley. At his age he can still produce aesthetic shots. He could very easily continue playing in Europe. I think the side that lost is world soccer...

They almost ended the match with a draw after AL Taee pulled a goal back in the 79th minute. But they were awarded a penalty, and Cistiano Ronaldo did well to take the spot-kick, putting them back in front.
They created many chances in this match, but they also failed to convert them into goals. However, it is worth noting that they were also often exposed by Al Taee's attacks. This is a note that they must quickly fix, because if they don't fix it, it will backfire when they face a stronger club.
They have recorded 6 consecutive wins.

Unfortunately, in the second half Al Nasr had to concede through Misidjan's kick in the 79th minute. Even though in last night's match I hoped that Al Nasr would be able to score lots of goals against Al Tae,e and without conceding a single one. However, the result was that Al Tae was able to score one goal in the second half. Even though in terms of games and opportunities, Al Nasr is far superior to Al Tae. Ronaldo even almost scored a goal against Al Tae several times, but unfortunately his chances always failed. However, Al Nasr was lucky to receive a penalty kick from the referee which resulted in a goal and put Al Nasr ahead until the second half whistle sounded. So even though last night's match was a little tense, especially when Al Nasr conceded one goal, the final result obtained by Al Nasr was still good. So with the results of last night's match, Al Nassr is currently in 4th place in the standings and is only 2 points adrift of Al Hilal who are currently at the top of the Saudi Arabian league standings.

So I also hope that in the next match Al Nasr can close the existing gaps and sharpen his attacking power, especially in taking advantage of opportunities. Because in my opinion, currently Al Nasr's attacking style is good. But only in terms of utilizing opportunities, it is a little lacking.

[rendravolt]

Ittihad FC could only draw against Al Feiha, which was quite detrimental for them because their competitor Al Hilal was actually able to win against Al Shabab so the standings changed again.
There were no goals in the Ittihad FC vs. Al Feiha match, and this was the first match where Ittihad faced difficulties in scoring goals even though they had more than 60% possession of the ball but that didn't allow them to score goals, there were quite a lot of opportunities but unfortunately, they all failed to become wasted
And Al Hilal won quite convincingly in the home match against Al Shabab, which cannot be said to be a weak team, Neymar has not scored a goal, but Mitrovic managed to make himself a quite productive striker in every Al Hilal match.

I didn't expect that al-Ittihad couldn't win this match and they couldn't even score 1 goal against Al-Feyha. It seems that Al-Ittihad had difficulty penetrating Al-Feyha's defense line and as evidenced by the fact that 5 shots on target were all successfully thwarted by the Al-Feyha goalkeeper. On the other hand, even though they continued to press, Al-Feyha also did not remain silent and they at least performed well enough in this match to make Al-Ittihad frustrated.

Regarding Al-Hilal they remain consistent and maybe the number of goals they score is not as usual, which can always score more than 3 goals. Maybe now they are experiencing a slow decline but that doesn't affect their performance to always win. This result makes Al-Hilal a little more comfortable at the top of the standings, but Al-Ittihad will still be trailing them considering the gap is only 1 point.

Al Hilal Riyadh vs AL Shabab Riyadh

Al Hilal Riyadh is now playing against AL Shabab Riyadh. This match is very important for Al Hilal. If Al Hilal can get 3 points in today's match then Al Hilal will be able to occupy the top spot in the table. If AL Hilal win this match they will have 20 points in 8 matches.

Al Shabab is not a powerful group. Al Hilal has more chances to get 3 points. But so far we are not seeing much good performance from Al Hilal. Neymar missed the opportunity to score from the penalty in the 37th minute. Such a performance is not expected from an experienced player like Neymar. AL Hilal have star players like Neymar, Mitrovic and Koulibaly in their squad. Hopefully the team will be able to get 3 points in the end.

Al Hilal which is having services of few top quality players are having good chance for the jumping at the top spot into Saudi League, but sadly we have early missed penalty by their star player Neymar Jr and now after end of the first half score is 0 - 0 which is not suitable for the home-side even we still have a half for the Al Hilal to do some action and take top rank but with this way of play things are looking not good for them.

Al Hilal is one of the best team in Saudi League with too many stars and good performance but in recent time they are having not good time against Al Shabad as they never lost in league matches against Al Hilal which is interesting, but now we have to wait for the rest of the match with can they win this match and take top rank or things are still going to favour Al Ittihad for staying at the top.

AL Hilala Riyad moved to the top of the points table with a 2-0 win over Al Shabab. Although Neymar missed the penalty, Al Hilal's players played brilliantly in the second half. Even after missing the penalty, there is no way to say that Neymar's performance was poor. He played well enough. Al Hilal management have added star players like Mitrovic, Neymar and Koulibaly to the squad by spending a lot of money. They are able to perform quite well. We haven't seen many good performances from AL Hilal in the last season. They were 13 points behind the champion team Ittihad. This season, the difference in points may not be so big. And Al Hilal has the potential to become the champion if they maintain such consistency.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

Al-Nasr won with goals from Ronaldo and Talisca. It was not an easy match. Although Ronaldo is 38 years old, there is no doubt that he continues his football career with the same seriousness in a disciplined manner, he is still in good shape and is still the savior of matches. Talisca continued where he left off from last week, scoring with a beautiful finish following a stylish assist from Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo could have scored more, even he was surprised by the goals he missed, and as a result, he won the match.

Ronaldo has been scoring like he's in his mid 20's, most strikers can't carry teams the way Ronaldo has been carrying all the teams he has played in and that's because of his determination to always win. Although his last goal was a penalty but still those aren't as easy as people think they're to score especially important ones that can win you a match. The pressure during this times get intense that you can miss the penalty if you're not a composed players. Ronaldo is now leading the highest goal scorer table with 10 goals this season. If he continues in this form, he might get more than 20 goals this season which will be okay to lead Al Nassr to a title winning season.

After losing first two games of the new season now Al Nassr having six games winning streak and this was one of the toughest win for them from these six wins because Al Taee done good job in second half and not allowed visitors to have anything good but Penalty which bring match winner for the Al Nassr give important win to them.

I didn't expect Al Taee to be this difficult to win considering the fact they're not in a good form but they gave Al Nassr a tough fight and even though they lost, they didn't lose facing down but had their head up because they gave their best to the match but luck was on Al Nassr side and Ronaldo been a master of penalty had to just score. If Al Taee can continue playing in the manner they did against Al Nassr, they can move up the table and save themselves another season in the Saudi Pro league. Al Taee were able to match Al Nassr shots on target which means they created similar chances to Al Nassr but it was just the penalty that gave Al Nassr the win.

AL Hilala Riyad moved to the top of the points table with a 2-0 win over Al Shabab. Although Neymar missed the penalty, Al Hilal's players played brilliantly in the second half. Even after missing the penalty, there is no way to say that Neymar's performance was poor. He played well enough. Al Hilal management have added star players like Mitrovic, Neymar and Koulibaly to the squad by spending a lot of money. They are able to perform quite well. We haven't seen many good performances from AL Hilal in the last season. They were 13 points behind the champion team Ittihad. This season, the difference in points may not be so big. And Al Hilal has the potential to become the champion if they maintain such consistency.

Al Hilal returned to the top of the Saudi Pro League standings in the eighth week, because Al Ittihad drew against Al Feiha. Even though they were almost equal in terms of ball possession, statistically Al Hilal dominated with 23 shots on goal, 8 of which were on target. Yes, even though he failed to execute the penalty, Neymar played quite well and had the highest rating. It is true that if they consistently get points, Al Hilal will be one of the clubs with the greatest chance of winning a trophy at the end of the season.

On the other hand, Al Ittihad draw against Al Feiha was quite surprising. I think the depth of the squad that Al Ittihad has is capable of being matched by Al Feiha. Even though they dominated the game, without Benzema on the front line Al Ittihad couldn't do much to score goals.

[Arenga pinnata]

The most eagerly awaited match this week is the Al-Ahli match against Al-Ettifaq. These two clubs actually always take turns winning.

But in the last meeting Al-ettifaq managed to beat Al-Ahli, namely in the previous season. At that time Al-Ahli was in poor performance and was even relegated from the Saudi Pro League.

But this season looks like it will be different. Al-Ahli is ready with the many European star players they have managed to bring in in the summer transfer window that has just ended. It's just that Al-Ettifaq currently also has no less European star players. So this time the match will definitely be very fierce.

But I would probably favorite Al-Ettifaq. Because I like their style of play after being coached by Steven Gerrard.

[iBaba]

Ronaldo has been scoring like he's in his mid 20's, most strikers can't carry teams the way Ronaldo has been carrying all the teams he has played in and that's because of his determination to always win. Although his last goal was a penalty but still those aren't as easy as people think they're to score especially important ones that can win you a match. The pressure during this times get intense that you can miss the penalty if you're not a composed players. Ronaldo is now leading the highest goal scorer table with 10 goals this season. If he continues in this form, he might get more than 20 goals this season which will be okay to lead Al Nassr to a title winning season.

Honestly, I am still marveled by Ronaldo's consistency on the pitch all these while and how he's still shining like a star that he is, in the Saudi Pro League. It continues to show how firm his talents are and why he's still one of the best in the history of football. At 15 minutes of the match, he add missed a shot that was slightly denied by the goalkeeper at the 18 yard. He missed another fantastic shot wide out in the first half after he had sprinted over the defenders.

Once they got back from the second half, Ronaldo shot a ground ball that got saved by the goalkeeper. He nearly net the ball in just 5 mins after but it went off the post upon hitting the bar. In the attempt for the team to score the winning goal, the header hits the ball on the hand of a defender which VAR declared as a penalty shootout. For Ronaldo's efforts in the match and his track records in the history of football, he was handed over the winning penalty which he delivered neatly. What more would the club demands of the star player again?

The most eagerly awaited match this week is the Al-Ahli match against Al-Ettifaq. These two clubs actually always take turns winning.

But in the last meeting Al-ettifaq managed to beat Al-Ahli, namely in the previous season. At that time Al-Ahli was in poor performance and was even relegated from the Saudi Pro League.

It's just that Al-Ettifaq currently also has no less European star players. So this time the match will definitely be very fierce.

But I would probably favorite Al-Ettifaq. Because I like their style of play after being coached by Steven Gerrard.

But do you think is the fate of Al-Ettifaq win be that guaranteed. I don't think so. Taking a bird's eye view on theor last 5 previous matches, won't give one the confidence for a win. However, that's like to happen too as Etiffaq managed to beat Al-ahli in their last match. Nonetheless, Al-Ahli has won more matches in their last 5 previous matches. It will be an interesting match today as both team will go out to the pitch in search for a 3 points. I feel like this match could rather end as a draw.
