Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[QueenVera]

the difference in points that exist between Al Hilal in relation to Al Nassr makes anyone think that Al Nassr could be on an impossible mission when it comes to the fight for the title, I say this because this season Al Hilal played 19 games, had zero defeats, that is, Al Hilal played 19 games without losing in any game, when you look at Al Hilal's attack and defense, you can see that they managed to score 59 goals in 19 games. That's like saying that the guys are close to an average of 3 goals per game, and when you look at Al Hilal's defense you can see that the guys only conceded 9 goals. They are the team with the best defense in the league and they are also the team with the best attack, and it is difficult to beat a team that has statistics like that.

especially when the goal difference is 7 goals and the team in second place had 3 defeats and conceded 23 goals. In my opinion, Al Nassr will at most be able to finish in second place this season, it is difficult for Ronaldo to achieve anything big in recent years, but in my opinion this is due to the lack of luck he has had, when I talk about lack of I mean luck in the sense that he is not having luck in the teams he has chosen. If he had been lucky enough to have gone to Al Hilal, then this season he would have been lucky to win the league. If Al Nassr also fails to win the league this season, then there will be one more season left for Ronaldo, I don't know if after next season he will renew his contract or not. but it seems to me that even if I renew it, it won't have a big impact

Al-Hilal vs Al-Nassr in the title race is one title race battle that’ll be so fierce especially as we’ve seen how crazy the points difference is between these 2 teams. Al-Hilal haven’t lost any game this season and in addition to that they’ve managed an average of 3 goals per game. A real incredible stat that Àĺ‐Nassr will have to come by if they want to have a shot at Al-Nassr and take over at top of the table. Al-Hilal have been without star man who they signed from PSG, Neymar and yet his absence haven’t affected their performance anybit at all.

 Ronaldo wants to win the league because he’s got just a season or two left and age isn’t on his side anymore as he might not be able to do all his dirty works when he’s off age which is one reason why he’s trying so hard to get the team always on the winning slate but let’s see if the rest of the team will be able to understand this and work with him.

Finally and after weeks we again saw Benzema training with Al Ittihad. Since Benzema joined Al Ittihad he couldn't have a good performance and he was mostly injured or not in good form and he was injured, there was even some news about this French famous payer leaving the Saudi League for the Europe but recently Benzema was seen in Al Ittihad training with other players.

[TelolettOm]

The Saudi League is a rich league, therefore clubs in the Saudi League do not have financial problems and they can easily recruit European star players with the finances they have even at high prices, such as when Al Nassr bought Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United, Al Hilal bought Neymar from PSG and also Ittihad brought Karim Benzema from Real Madrid. They are star players in the European league and the transfer fees are not small so the Saudi league can still recruit these star players to advance the league itself.

Of course, the teams of Saudi League are rich teams. They can sign any European player who is interested to join Saudi League. Ronaldo, Neymar, and Benzema are the perfect examples of the top European players who want to join Saudi League. Saudi teams will have no problem with the transfer fees although sometimes it looks a bit too much. But as long as it doesn't break any rules, Saudi teams can do it and bring top players to improve the quality of their domestic competition.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the player who has had the biggest impact in the Saudi League and thanks to him the Saudi League has become famous because there are so many Ronaldo fans in various parts of the world that it has made the Saudi League even more popular since Cristiano Ronaldo joined the Saudi League, especially clubs like Al Nassr and even got tickets playing in the Champions League like a rumor I've heard because there might be Ronaldo at the Al Nassr club.

Ronaldo is the first European superstar who came to Saudi League (joined Al Nassr). No doubt if he can bring big impacts because he has many fans around the world. They follow Ronaldo, they will watch Ronaldo wherever Ronaldo plays. Since Ronaldo plays in Saudi League, those fans will watch Saudi League as well. And it becomes more interesting because other SPL teams can bring other superstar players. Now, the SPL becomes more competitive because they have many quality players from Europe. This is something that MLS doesn't have because only Inter Miami has the star players.

It sounds good. it means that if benzema is starting to revitalizing his relationship with t he club again. Im quite happy by hearing this news and he will not leave from ittihad soon. I think that benzema will be staying in the club. He never thought to leave from al ittihad caused by it's still making him feel convenient to play in the ittihad squad. So, we can define that if all of rumors related to him were fake news, right? it's caused by there were many rumors said about him. I think that this is gonna be the main problem that needs to be solved as soon as possible by him through making a clarrification regarding his status in the club.

I do like him when he was coming back again to the squad. It proves that if nothing happened between him and the club. All of rumors about him have been marked to be the fact rumors and it's all being made by non responsible parties.
I hope that everything will be cleared as soon as possible it will also remove the bad image of him due to the some bad news being spreaded in the market. Benzema is likely staying much longer in ittihad and he has no intention to leave soon.

We are all hoping him to leave but it's not happening right now. Enough is enough. Let him try to get his best form again in SPL.

It's nice to see Benzema returning to training with the Al Ettihad team because in recent news, Benzema seems to have made a mistake with the team, making the board angry with Benzema due to his lack of discipline, but it seems like both parties are fine because Benzema has been training with the team, which means Benzema is still have the opportunity to play in the Saudi league. I think Benzema's return to the European league is still just a rumor because no team has dared to recruit this player from the Saudi league considering the very expensive transfer fee and European teams have to think that Benzema's performance is no longer as strong as when he was at Madrid.

Since Benzema joined Al Ittihad he couldn't have a good performance and he was mostly injured or not in good form and he was injured, there was even some news about this French famous payer leaving the Saudi League for the Europe but recently Benzema was seen in Al Ittihad training with other players.

Training sessions, Benzema is player with fairly large transfer fee and of course when he often misses matches it is clearly detrimental thing for Al Ittihad.
The news of Benzema return really makes all fans feel pleasure and joy because it makes it possible for Al Ittihad to win more easily, if Benzema performs well then Al Ittihad front line can be said to be quite perfect.
Moreover, Benzema is also one of the goal machines for Al Ittihad and he will really be core player who is always used in every match if conditions allow him to play.
This is good start for Benzema considering that previously there had been problems that made him have to rest.
He should give his best for Al Ittihad just like he used to play with Real Madrid, Benzema should show that he is truly great player and make all Al Ittihad fans proud.

[Josefjix]

There's still a chance for Al Nassr to overtake Al Hilal, as long as the Serbian guy is injured, Al Hilal will struggle to score a goal. Ronaldo will be recovered soon, fortunately they don't have any big match in this month.

Al Hilal remained unbeaten this season with fewer games left, they're in mid-season and have become one of the necessary threats to the vast majority of SPL clubs. They only have one main threat and it's Al Nassr, they're coming for the big game and winning becomes a priority for such an elite team. I'm still looking forward for one of these numerous clubs to hand over the first defeat of the season to Al Hilal, it will come like a surprise because it will definitely be from an average team that's still struggling to stand strong enough to win matches.

Since Benzema joined Al Ittihad he couldn't have a good performance and he was mostly injured or not in good form and he was injured, there was even some news about this French famous payer leaving the Saudi League for the Europe but recently Benzema was seen in Al Ittihad training with other players.

He is getting older one age each year and he has worse fitness year by year so his total appearances each season will drop with time. It is natural trend for all old players and Benzema will not be able to avoid this natural effects on his body.

The return to training is a not strange because the winter transfer window in Europe was closed and no transfer was completed to satisfy Benzema. He has to return to Saudi Arabia, get back to work for Al Ittihad if he does not want to appear in a court against Al Ittihad. In this situation, he is breaking the contract term, not Al Itithad.

Moreover, Benzema is also one of the goal machines for Al Ittihad and he will really be core player who is always used in every match if conditions allow him to play.
This is good start for Benzema considering that previously there had been problems that made him have to rest.
He should give his best for Al Ittihad just like he used to play with Real Madrid, Benzema should show that he is truly great player and make all Al Ittihad fans proud.

He looks to be less ready for matches in Al Ittihad, not only matches he missed by his injuries but when he was in their squad, he played worse than what he should perform with his level and quality. Anyway it's not the end of his career and chance to return to Europe, if he completes his 2 year contract with Al Ittihad. Finishing the contract will help him getting about $200M which is like a fortune.

Since Benzema joined Al Ittihad he couldn't have a good performance and he was mostly injured or not in good form and he was injured, there was even some news about this French famous payer leaving the Saudi League for the Europe but recently Benzema was seen in Al Ittihad training with other players.

It seems that all the issues have been resolved for the time being, and with him returning to the Ittihad FC training camp answers rumors about the possibility of him moving, although something like that could happen at the start of next season.
And I agree that he at Ittihad did not show anything impressive and that was quite surprising because his presence was expected to help Ittihad to defend the title but that didn't happen even now they are out of title contenders.
Today Ittihad will compete against Al Ta'ee, and they should be able to handle this opponent well even though Ittihad is not in good form because after a long rest it will provide new energy for players except those who compete for their country in the Asian Cup, moreover, the three consecutive defeats they got should be broken because continuing to experience bad results will further worsen the mental state of their players.

It seems that all the issues have been resolved for the time being, and with him returning to the Ittihad FC training camp answers rumors about the possibility of him moving, although something like that could happen at the start of next season.

It seems to be a calm before a storm as an ambitious player like Benzema will find other opportunities to return to Europe. If he can not get chance to do it sooner that the contract expiration date, he will do it after its expiration. Earning massive salary from Al Ittihad in two seasons will be enough for Benzema to say goodbye. If he still wants to enjoy Champions League, he will leave Saudi Arabia because he knows time left for his career is not too much.

And I agree that he at Ittihad did not show anything impressive and that was quite surprising because his presence was expected to help Ittihad to defend the title but that didn't happen even now they are out of title contenders.

They began this season to defend their title in Saudi Professional League but they are now at middle of table. This certainly is a very disappointed ranking for Al Ittihad after spending big money not only for Benzema but some other star players. It seems they did not spend their money wisely like Al Nassr or Al Hilal and their squad is not balancing between attacking and defensive areas.

It's hard to imagine that caused by al hilal has the balanced squad in the saudi pro league. Al hilal was also rarely conceded goals against its opponent too. It has become a very strong point to say that if al hilal will not be losing till the end of season if it can keep with the current performacne. I think that the only possible club to bet al hilal was al nassr.
This caused by it was the strongest team after al hilal and i think that al nassr was quite capable to bet it at the second leg. Al hilal was destroying al nassr inthe first league and it has intention to do revenge against al hilal. Im also concerning how consistent mitrovic and savic.

These guys were always able pushing the club to perform better and win the game. I can't even really understand how a player like savic can be solved by fulham to the al hilal. I think that savic can go back to the EPL again and i remember that when savic saves totenham from being relegted.
That moment was so bautiful to be remembered. I think that al nassr was the only team that can be equal to the al hilal at this time. Ittihad and ahli are still struggling with their own problems while al hilal is always going up even higher and leave his competitors behind.

Al Nassr will have difficulty in this match and will even find it difficult to catch up with the point difference because 7 points is not an easy task for Al Nassr because Al Hilal has never made any mistakes while Al Nassr has lost 3 times since the start of the season so it will be difficult to catch up with the point difference and in on the one hand, Al Nassr seems to have a very busy match schedule and Ronaldo absence seems to worry the fans because without Ronaldo, Al Nassr will find it increasingly difficult to win the title from Al Hilal, while Mitrovic as Al Hilal mainstay player is still in a very strong condition to continue to be consistent help get 3 points in every match.
of course Al Hilal doesn't need Neymar because from the start Mitrovic was reliable and ready enough to compete with Ronaldo.

currently, Ronaldo has a definite goal to get a title in the SPL helping the team he is currently playing for is not an easy job om the one hand, Al Hilal is one of the very strong teams in the SPL so Ronaldo will continue to try in the remaining time and still be able to have a career try your best give your best contribution.

The rumors circulating regarding Benzema have actually received confirmation that he was only on holiday and had important business in the country he was traveling to at that time. So the issue about him leaving the club is just an issue. Because actually there is no reason for Benzema to immediately leave Al-ittihad. And the appearance of Benzema in training sessions is also the answer to all the doubts that everyone has about Benzema at the club. There are even rumors that Benzema will join Al-Nassr. And yeah, it seems like that's just an issue. But I'm happy that Benzema is finally back in the picture.

Today Al-ittihad will face Al-taee. And this is a postponed match that Al-ittihad must make good use of.

With this news development, it looks like we can still see Benzema strengthening Al-Ittihad and also the previous problems in the dressing room have been completely resolved. Now Benzema can focus more on defending Al-Ittihad for the remainder of the season and hopes he can find his best performance. We know that since leaving Real Madrid he is actually still quite productive but perhaps in the Saudi league he still needs to adjust to his colleagues who are clearly different from those at Real Madrid.

Benzema is more often the finisher in front of the opponent's goal and perhaps that is something he cannot let go of when the team wants his important role more than just a finisher at Al-Ittihad. Today's match against Al-Tae will be a turning point and we hope Benzema can score again because we will definitely miss his brilliant performance.

[Uruhara]

Today Al-ittihad will face Al-taee. And this is a postponed match that Al-ittihad must make good use of.

In today's match Al-Tai is the host and maybe this will also make them more motivated to fight harder and could make things difficult for Al-ittihad. But before the break yesterday, Al-tai actually had a really bad performance which made them even enter the relegation zone now. Meanwhile, Al-ittihad also had a poor level of consistency in the first half of this season. But I believe that in the second half of this season Al-ittihad will improve and will collect full points in today's match. And this will immediately bring Al-ittihad up from 7th place to 5th place.

After week 19 of the Saudi Arabian League, Al Taee and Al Ittihad were finally reunited after being absent for the past month and this time the duel between the two teams was something that fans of their respective teams had been waiting for.
Al Ittihad has the best player from Europe, namely Karim Banzema, of course this is very beneficial for Al Ittihad because Karim Benzema is a mainstay player who is predicted to bring 3 points for Al Ittihad against Al Taee. Even though previously Al Ittihad played very badly because they suffered 3 consecutive defeats in the Saudi Arabian League and this is what made Al Ittihad appear more enthusiastic and full of strong self-confidence until they were able to stay in 7th place in the standings. the current standings, while Al Taee is still far behind Al Ittihad by occupying 16th position out of 17 standings or it could be said to be in the bottom 2 of the standings.

We know that since leaving Real Madrid he is actually still quite productive but perhaps in the Saudi league he still needs to adjust to his colleagues who are clearly different from those at Real Madrid.

He gets back to training and will soon play for Al Ittihad but hoping him to contribute something like magic for Al Ittihad is unrealistic. Because he did not create magic in more than half of the season and Al Ittihad already drop too deep on the table of Saudi Professional League. They have no chance to defend their title and they can aim at a third position that can help them to make this failed season less serious.

Benzema is more often the finisher in front of the opponent's goal and perhaps that is something he cannot let go of when the team wants his important role more than just a finisher at Al-Ittihad. Today's match against Al-Tae will be a turning point and we hope Benzema can score again because we will definitely miss his brilliant performance.

He was given his favorite position in Al-Ittihad and he was just unable to play at his highest level and best ability. Now his mind would be clear that he will not move to any club in this season and perhaps he will focus on contribution for the club in next months. About his future, maybe he will request again in the summer but now it is not time for it, still some months till the summer.

With lack of training because of the drama, Benzema is not too ready for the match but hopefully with his experience, he can score goals in the match for Al-Ittihad.

I think that if the problems published by so many news were fake. From what i can see that if there was no problem between benzema and the club, im guessing that is just a miss communication between players with the coach. It's a common thing in the football. We do know that so well how good or bad the relationship between him and ittihad.
I can only predict that if this is also confirming that if there was issue between him and the club. I think media and journalist was only wrongly predicting what happened between him and ittihad. Im feeling so happy to see him back again to the club.

Al ittihad was always performing so badly since he was disappearing and deactivated his social media accounts. I think that this is now as simple as people said caused by that's the only benzema who know so well about how good or bad his relationship with ittihad.
This is also confirming if all of speculations regarding him to go to the other club was totally fake. This thing makes everything clear about the situation that happened around him. Finally, benzema has been appearing himself. What a good moment to apper and confirms the rumor about him.

But I believe that in the second half of this season Al-ittihad will improve and will collect full points in today's match. And this will immediately bring Al-ittihad up from 7th place to 5th place.

After a long pause and this is the first match after the break will be very difficult to predict because there are so many changes that we do not know when passing through the break.
I also bet in this match but if only speculating I predict that the total match produces a score of less than 3 and will end up to win with 2 scores and Al-Ta'ee will not score.

But I'm not sure whether in that match Benzema will be present to make a contribution because he previously had problems with Ittihad but if he is present in this match it will be an opportunity to make a good contribution scoring a lot of scores to prove to the world that he can have a change after being assessed as a player who no longer has productivity while Al-Ta'ee is a weak club and Benzema should have been present at the match.
Al-Ta'ee I'm not sure has a chance to survive in the Saudi pro league because the condition of this club seems to be declining and there is no hope of leaving the red zone soon.

[Volgastallion]

I dont buy anything about that shit of Benzemas hollidays, i think he really have a problem with the coach or with directives and now he is back because they solve or tried to solve that problems.
And he is abck on training because he doesnt want to lose his phisical condition, nothing more.
