Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[TelolettOm]

Al Ittihad is only the fourth most valuable club in the Saudi Professional League, they are behind Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli. It's funny how some of the clubs pay more salary to a single player than their whole squad is worth That doesn't sound to me as if it was making a lot of sense. Al-Nassr is worth around 165 million euros and Ronaldo alone earns 200 million I think? The same is going on with Al-Ittihad and Benzema. It's ridiculous in my opinion and shows how far off they are with their salaries.

I'm not surprised if Al Ittihad can't compete for the title although they have Benzema and other top players. Benzema often gets injured, he isn't in a good condition to show his best form. But it is very surprising to see Al Ittihad to be in 6th place only. How can Al Taawoun be in a better position in the table? It is something very unfortunate for Al Ittihad. I think Al Ittihad needs to evaluate their tactics, it seems not suitable with Benzema and the whole players. They just pay high salaries, but they got bad results.

Al Hilal just defeated Ahba with a landslide score of 7-0. Jorge Jesus' squad is like a team that is on fire, which is able to progress with a positive trend in its 18 matches without defeat.

Al Hilal is unstoppable, they are in their best form. Even Al Nassr seems a bit impossible to catch them in the top of SPL table. They often won the matches with big scores and never got a defeat at all. I simply assume that Al Hilal surely will be the champion of SPL this season. No team is likely trying to overtake their points.

Al Nassr's defeat to Al Hilal earlier this month changed the equations upside down. Till then the gap between these two teams were not that much. But now Al Hilal has 47 points and Al Nassr is 10 points behind. A convincing win against Al Riyadh after this match did little to close the gap any further. As of now there is simply no competition for Al Hilal. We are almost half-way through and it is almost certain that they will be the champions for this year. The inclusion of Aleksandar Mitrović has worked wonders for them.

Unbelievable performance from al hilal. I hear that al hilal has planned to add lukaku on its line up. Al hilal has prepared 60 millions offer for chelsea to get him. It will obviously make al hilal becomes even stronger than before.
Mitrovic was the most successful transfer from al hilal. It was not a problem if al hilal rejected many times by messi and it was also even terminate neymar from its club but al hilal got mitrovic which was able carrying the club alon.
I can't wait to see him to perform together with lukaku once al hilal will get him from chelsea.

It looks like today is a valuable moment for Damac because he will play against the team Laurentiu Reghecampf, namely Alta'ee, currently Alta'ee is ranked 13th and Alta'ee has just been defeated by Al-Okhdood with a score of 1-0, of course this will gives Damac confidence and of course if Damac manages to beat Al-ta'ee of course Damac will move up the rankings and shift the position of Ittihad who were last season's champions so I think Damac will definitely fight. as hard as he can and I think Damac has great potential to win. but personally, in the next match I am willing to bet that Al-ta'ee will win because I saw the good performance of the Al-ta'ee players and I am sure Laurentiu Reghecampf coach will Made a good strategy. against Al-hilal Al-raed and al-fateh I see Al-ta'ee's performance is very good so based on that I am willing to bet on Al-ta'ee winning. and I predict Al-ta'ee's victory is 2-1. I would like to know your predictions for this match. Yes, it seems that if Al-ta'ee wins it will definitely become popular news and Damac will definitely admit that Al-ta'ee's strength is very good. However, Damac will definitely not be afraid to face Al-Ta'ee because Damac drew against Al-Hilal several months ago, of course this will make Damac's self-confidence even higher.

They're becoming quite impressive this season and I love their fighting spirit, they don't have too much top class European stars in there squad like Al Hilal and the rest but they've give in their best and it's gradually heading them to the top 4 in the standings, I don't think Damac would take today's match against Al-Tai, likely, despite the fact that they've got a home advantage, I think this match is a win for them cause they'll need the 3 points to get past Al- Ittihad in the standings.

 If you compare both teams you'll see that Damac are far better than their opponents this season, they're in 6th position whereas Al-Tai are currently at 13th and moreover Damac have kept a pretty good record in their past matches anf i believe that there's a possibility of them maintaining that good record in today's match, well lets sit back and watch how it unfold.

This time Al Hilal should play against a team named Abha and I don't have any exact information about this team but I'm pretty sure they won't have a chance to score even one goal against Al Hilal and we can even bet on it because Al Hilal is currently in the first pale of the Saudi League while Al Nassr needs ten points to reach this team.
A team like Abha is totally unknown and they are in the danger zone which means they are not even motivated to win this match.

Yes, your prediction this time was correct and now Al-Hilal has managed to win the match with a score of 7-0. I didn't expect that Al-Hilal would score so many goals. Yes, this proves that Al-Hilal is not a weak team, and I think a win against Abha will definitely make Al-Hilal players more confident in winning the trophy this season. I remember when Abha played against Al-Nassr, at that time Al-Nassr Draw against Abha with a score of 2-2 and from that match we can of course see that Al-Nassr's current strength cannot compete with Al-Hilal. but of course we will see the results of the match later: Al-Nassr against Al-ETtifaq and the opponent that Al-Nassr will face, I think his strength exceeds that of Abha because the standings of Abha and Al-ETtifaq are of course quite far apart. So, for example, Al-Nassr wins with A score that is not much is certainly not a problem because in my opinion Abha and Al-ettifaq are certainly Al-ettifaq superior

this time I failed in betting it turns out al-ta'ee lost the match against Damac with a score of 3-0 and I didn't expect that B.mensah would get a red card, yes of course we deserve to congratulate Damac and now ittihad must accept its standings down to below Damac.

Unbelievable performance from al hilal. I hear that al hilal has planned to add lukaku on its line up. Al hilal has prepared 60 millions offer for chelsea to get him. It will obviously make al hilal becomes even stronger than before.
Mitrovic was the most successful transfer from al hilal. It was not a problem if al hilal rejected many times by messi and it was also even terminate neymar from its club but al hilal got mitrovic which was able carrying the club alon.
I can't wait to see him to perform together with lukaku once al hilal will get him from chelsea.

Lukaku is not a loyal player type and he can move to any club that can satisfy his temporary needs. With deep pockets of Saudi Arabian clubs, they are able to bring him out of Roma and basically he only plays for Roma in a loan transfer from Chelsea.

The deal has to be made between Al Hilal and Chelsea that I believe will be easily done by Al Hilal and Chelsea. The rest is from Lukaku, will he want to move to Saudi Professional League. I think he has no big reason to refuse very good offer from Al Hilal when some star players already joined and are playing in this league. If Lukaku wins Europa League with Roma this season, he will have an opportunity to leave Europe with a big title. Surely it is not the same as Champions League but it is still one of most wanted titles for any player. If it happens, moving to Saudi Arabia and enjoying his life there is very good choice.

[BRINIRHA]

I think Damac's performance this season has improved a lot. Last season, Damac also finished in 8th place, which indicates that Damac's squad is one of the best in the SPL. And now Damac also has a number of points close to Al-ittihad. Because Damac is currently ranked 6th and is 1 point different from Al-ittihad which is ranked 5th. Meanwhile, Al-ta'ee is far below Damac. Namely, Al-Ta'ee is currently ranked 13th. Added to this is the position of Damac who will be the host of today's match. So I think there is no reason to hesitate in favoring Damac in this match.

I believe that its both a bit Damac playing well but also a bit Ittihad not playing that well too. We are talking about Ittihad who spent so much money getting all the great players and then playing this badly. Ittihad should be like within 5 points of the title, and if possible should have been top of the standings as well, not where they are. So if Damac is close to Ittihad, that is because Damac played well that's true but also because Ittihad has played terribly this season so far as well.

It's not even just about getting stars, its about building a whole team, Damac did that, and even without Neymar look at his team? That's the thing about football, no matter how many stars you have, if there isn't a team that plays together, you will lose.

It's true that cooperation is the most important thing in a team. If there is one of the players who tries to highlight his own individual side but is not good at adapting to his teammates, it can also cause the team to collapse and it will not be able to play optimally. I think Al-ittihad also still has a tendency towards poor teamwork. Adaptation and resonance between fellow players is very important. But I'm sure Al-ittihad will slowly return to their better form as a solid team like last season.

Damac in the end today they have proven that they are a solid team overall. They managed to beat Al-Ta'ee very well. Scoring 3 goals without conceding a single one is an achievement that deserves a thumbs up. I think Damac, if it continues its good performance, will even be able to overtake Al-ittihad if Al-ittihad is careless and doesn't improve.

I think Al-ittihad also still has a tendency towards poor teamwork. Adaptation and resonance between fellow players is very important. But I'm sure Al-ittihad will slowly return to their better form as a solid team like last season.

Of course, being able to work well together in a team is a must. But sometimes a club that initially has a high level of solidarity when no foreign players have arrived can turn out to be less solid when foreign players arrive. We can imagine if initially there was a local player at Al-ittihad who was the favorite in his team but then he immediately lost his position when a top European player arrived. So it is natural that they will not be able to immediately adapt to these European players. Sometimes adaptation is not only needed by the top European players themselves. But players who are already at the club also have to adapt again to the new players who have arrived. So if everyone tries to understand each other and establish good cooperation then the solidarity of a team will be created again. C.Ronaldo at Al-Nassr is someone who is able to adapt quickly so that he can be accepted by the team quickly. So we can see that the Al-Nassr squad really respects C.Ronaldo. And we can see that Al-Nassr's game looks comfortable with each other. But talking about Damac I am quite impressed with them. They have been solid since last season. And now they are getting more solid even though they don't have as many top European players as other teams.

Damac in the end today they have proven that they are a solid team overall. They managed to beat Al-Ta'ee very well. Scoring 3 goals without conceding a single one is an achievement that deserves a thumbs up. I think Damac, if it continues its good performance, will even be able to overtake Al-ittihad if Al-ittihad is careless and doesn't improve.

At first I would have missed betting on Damac. But I changed my mind and bet on Damac. And yeah it was a really nice win. It looks like Damac can be expected to be better than now.

Well, Al Hilal plans to bring in Lukaku and this looks like it will be good effort by Al Hilal because Lukaku himself is striker who can be relied on, even though his performance has decreased, at least he is much better now.
In the previous transfer window, Al Hilal had too much drama when they wanted to bring in several players, but now they are prioritizing players who really have a big chance of getting them.

And it is true to say that Mitrovic is the most successful transfer from Al Hilal and it can also be seen that Mitrovic himself is currently the main player in the Al Hilal squad.
He succeeded in bringing Al Hilal to the top of the SPL standings with 50 points and Mitrovic has also provided 16 goals with 4 assists in 16 matches.

I sure that having Lukaku with them can help Mitrovic in bringing Al Hilal to win the SPL and of course these two players will be a series of players who can be very sharp in Al Hilal attack line.

[TastyChillySauce00]

In a few moments Al hilal the leader of the torunament is gonn a play against one of the teams in relegation zone so, we can expect one more easy win for the leader of the tournament. The bookies give them only 1.07 odds so is super favourtite to win this game, i dont bet in such low odds.

It's caused by that odds was not even worth with the risk if al hilal will be surprisingly draw against its opponent. Al hilal is still on its prime and anyone who is willing to risking their money to bet onto the al hilal may get easy pennies.

I would like to call that is as pennies consider it was only giving very very small odds. Bookies knew that al hilal will be winning the game easily. There was no club that is even better compared to the al hilal in the SPL. That odds obviously make sense.
I refrain myself from betting on it due to the very low odds. It doesn't even make sense to see that. I meant the odds is not even worthy to put some bucks on it.

Others may have seen it as easy money but it's up to them. I have no complaint regarding it as they were taking the risk by their own decision.

I am not sure whether this is going to be successful. The amount of money offered by Al Hilal is not that big. We are talking about €60 million spread across two years. Also, he is currently playing for AS Roma and they don't have any intention to release him. But if somehow Al Hilal is successful, then without any doubt they will become unbeatable in the Saudi Professional League. Already they are 12 points ahead of the second placed Al Nassr. And yesterday they destroyed Abha by a margin of 7-0 and that included a hat-trick from Sergej Milinković-Savić.

if there are problems next season, it might happen. we will never know how long Lukaku will continue to play for Roma. At least problems are unlikely to occur until the end of this season.
but this rumor might be wrong if Roma ends up continuing to use Lukaku. if he becomes more productive and asks him to be very important in the team, of course Roma will not just let him go.
but if Lukaku makes a personal deal with an Arab club, we might see him playing for an Arab club next season.

[8rch7]

Finally very interested with Saudi Pro League top scorer standings after Aleksandar Mitrović scoring one goals when Al Hilal winning over 7-0 against Abha make him has the same with Cristiano Ronaldo goals. Cristiano Ronaldo have two matches left with Al Nassr and has chance return to top scorer position standings because against Al Ittifaq seems not difficult for Cristiano Ronaldo scoring goals.  
Beside have both name leaded top scorer awhile between Cristiano Ronalod and Aleksandar Mitrović right now have Georges-Kévin N'Koudou in top scorer standings with 14 goals and he left two goals from Ronaldo or Mitrovic.

Yeah it's only for a while because today Al-Nassr will play their 17th match and I'm also sure Ronaldo will score. The sportsbook has released the betting markets for this match it seems they predict Al-Nassr will win by 2 goals or more the handicap is Al-Nassr -1.5 yeah this makes sense because of Al-Nassr's ambition to continue to get closer to Al-Hilal and Ronaldo's ambition to take over the top scorer. If Al-Nassr can win these 2 matches then the point difference is 7 then Al-Nassr will wait for another important moment to continue collecting points, the problem is that Al-Nassr has to wait for Al-Hilal to be defeated while the team that can beat Al-Hilal is probably only Al-Nassr and that opportunity could come next May when both teams fight each other it's just that one defeat is not enough to replace Al-Hilal at the top of the standings at least Al-Hilal must lose 2-3 times.

Actually Al-Nassr's chances of winning the title have become smaller since they were defeated by Al-Hilal at the beginning of December and Al-Nassr needs a miracle to catch up but yeah we know Ronaldo is there he will do anything to exceed his target and there is still time to do it. I can't imagine how Ronaldo feels when in 2 seasons they are unable to win the title even though he has done his best including being the top scorer, the choice is 2 winning the Saudi Pro League or Asian Champions League one of them can help Ronaldo to stay with Al-Nassr.

In this season Al-Hilal is surely playing into completely different planet with their performance is unbelievable they are having the best attack and their defence is also amazing with this performance no doubt things are easy for them, and they can handle this all easily without any problem even they lost Neymar Jr but currently Metrovic is really amazing with currently his tally is in level with Cristiano Ronaldo, and we can expect good competition between them for the highest goalscorer in this season here in Saudi Professional League.

Abha is already in relegation zone, and they are badly punished by the leaders with we have hat-trick from the Milinkovic-Savic and 16th goal from the Metrovic who is also having the best time after coming from Fulham to here in this league.

It doesn't make sense at all. But there is reason to do so. We didn't know much about Saudi clubs even a few years ago. They have come to the discussion by spending a lot of money. World star players like Neymar, Ronaldo and Benzema have been added to the squad. And this is why the world is now aware of Saudi clubs. We regularly discuss Saudi clubs. Adding players to the squad by spending a lot of money is part of Saudi Arabia's marketing strategy. Because if they didn't do it, the Saudi club wouldn't be so well known.

The are the best team in the league so far, being top of the league is not the only reason i say they are the best but also performance wise they are the best. They seem to have best attacking mode and the defense also compliments it perfectly and all apartments are in good form. Despite Neymar being absent due to injury they still show that they are more than capable to win the league, they out play and win almost any team that comes their way. The approach and style of play adopted by the coach is the best i have seen so far in the league.

Adding Lukaku will make them a nightmare for the real of the teams but I believe most teams will also look to add more strength to their team. Lukaku + Mitrovic will be one of the best combinations if they are able to sign him and will be difficult for most teams to keep up.

Mitrovic is busy scoring the goals but i think the defenders and Midfielders are the ones carrying the team lowkey.

It's ridiculous in my opinion and shows how far off they are with their salaries.

It's not only that. There is also another problem like the club was giving a special privilege for all of them. They receoved very big salaries even more compared to the combined salaries received by other players. They got also more privilege like received VVIP service.
I remind you ronaldo received a lot of luxury cars to be used as his daily transportation. It was so crazy to see that and i think that al hilal is a club with only a few european players. Al hilal was able performing even better compared to the al nassr and ittihad.
It's so pity to see how al ittihad has been declining a lot since there was an internal problem between benzema vs its coach. This is the main problem that needs to be solved as soon as possible.
The club was offering non sense salary for the super star player but the gap is too big compared to the ordinary player in the club. This is also creating bad environment in the club.

You are completely right about Ittihad's behavior. They've put a lot of money and time into their team, so they should be one of the favorites. But in football, as you rightly said, it's not just about the stars; it's about the team as a whole. Right now, Damac's position just shows that they work better together. In football, teamwork is like well-oiled gears: everything needs to work together. There's more than one or two players involved. Ittihad seems to have missed this message with all the money they spend. They should get together, work together, and play like the team their budget says they are

but it seems there is a desire for Roma to sign Lukaku permanently. That's because of Lukaku's good performance with Roma. but reportedly that could happen if Roma manages to enter the Champions League next season. whether that's possible or not because the competition in Serie A is quite tight at the moment.
if Roma can't achieve that, Lukaku may go to Saudi. Due to the loan contract from Roma and Chelsea, Lukaku will only stay at Roma for one season. and after that, if the Al Hilal Negotiations go well, maybe they really will have it.

You are completely right about Ittihad's behavior. They've put a lot of money and time into their team, so they should be one of the favorites. But in football, as you rightly said, it's not just about the stars; it's about the team as a whole. Right now, Damac's position just shows that they work better together. In football, teamwork is like well-oiled gears: everything needs to work together. There's more than one or two players involved. Ittihad seems to have missed this message with all the money they spend. They should get together, work together, and play like the team their budget says they are

I couldn't agree more. Ittihad's investment in players and resources should indeed make them strong contenders, but the essence of football lies in teamwork. Damac's current position reflects their cohesion on the field. It's not just about individual stars; it's about how well the team functions as a unit. Ittihad may need to reevaluate its approach, focus on teamwork, and ensure that its high budget translates into effective collaboration on the pitch.

I think Damac's performance this season has improved a lot. Last season, Damac also finished in 8th place, which indicates that Damac's squad is one of the best in the SPL. And now Damac also has a number of points close to Al-ittihad. Because Damac is currently ranked 6th and is 1 point different from Al-ittihad which is ranked 5th. Meanwhile, Al-ta'ee is far below Damac. Namely, Al-Ta'ee is currently ranked 13th. Added to this is the position of Damac who will be the host of today's match. So I think there is no reason to hesitate in favoring Damac in this match.

I believe that its both a bit Damac playing well but also a bit Ittihad not playing that well too. We are talking about Ittihad who spent so much money getting all the great players and then playing this badly. Ittihad should be like within 5 points of the title, and if possible should have been top of the standings as well, not where they are. So if Damac is close to Ittihad, that is because Damac played well that's true but also because Ittihad has played terribly this season so far as well.

It's not even just about getting stars, its about building a whole team, Damac did that, and even without Neymar look at his team? That's the thing about football, no matter how many stars you have, if there isn't a team that plays together, you will lose.

It is true that Ittihad has spent a lot of money to recruit star players from the European leagues but unfortunately Ittihad cannot make good use of the players they recruit, even though Ittihad hopes that spending a lot of money on players can improve their performance but instead they can't do much, the coach can't. establish cooperation between players to build better cooperation. In my opinion, the clubs that have managed to perform well by spending a lot of money are Al Hilal and Al Nassr. Both clubs spending a lot of money on star players and these players can make a good contribution.
