Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[dezoel]

There's this competitive race, we have been avoiding the top levels and also watching the incredible performance of most of these SPL elite teams. Consistent performance follows and we totally understand what it means for the top clubs like Al Hilal who are currently Champs. They won with just a defeat and they've driven for excellent results in upcoming matches. These Saudi Arabia clubs possess the gigantic funds to elevates the Saudi Pro League this season. They're entirely working on a strategy to upgrade their status in every possible ranks.

Other clubs will try to get other top European players so that next season other clubs can match Al-Hilal's strength. Because by now all the teams in the SPL must have realized that Al-Hilal's level is very different. And with the financial strength that the SPL clubs have, I am sure they will succeed in getting some of Europe's top players and coaches back in the next transfer market.

In fact, several clubs have started approaching top European players earlier. They do this to increase their chances of getting the player they were after from the start. And so that it is not preceded by other clubs. And it will indeed become more competitive.

Saudi League invested nearly $875.4 million in last transfer window, but outcome of this league is not as they were expected just because of this now in next window we are going to have some changes as they are already announced things will be not as they have done in last season so for the better updates about this all we have to wait for their next official statement even we are having too many players under their radar, but things can take changes which will prevent them from spending huge funds like they spend in last season.

After last seasons investments they are having all four clubs those are belonged to PIF still at the top and now how things will be work this could be interesting because now difference of quality is widened, and they need to be had some better approach for this all which will allow other clubs to give their best but this all needed huge investment so how they will be settled this all it's currently not clear.

Yes, clubs in Saudi Arabia do have very abundant finances. So it is very natural that Saudi Arabian clubs use this abundant money to advance football in their country. The reason is that clubs in Europe too, can progress because they have sufficient finances so they can recruit very talented players. For this reason, it is very likely that Saudi Arabian League clubs will follow the steps of European clubs in order to improve the quality of their football. And one of the steps is definitely to take advantage of his very abundant finances.

However, one of the problems that Saudi Arabian League clubs should be wary of is that some clubs do not seem to have sufficient funds to recruit top European players. The reason is that in the transfer market last season, only Al Nasr, Al Hilal, Al Ahli, Al Ittihad and Al Etiffaq dominated the transfer market by bringing in top players from Europe. However, other Saudi Arabian League clubs have not recruited too many top European players. So this season's Saudi Arabian League looks less competitive (which is currently ongoing). Maybe the reason is because the quality of clubs, especially in terms of players, is not evenly distributed well.

And a big example, Al Hilal this season has never been defeated by any club in Saudi Arabia. Even a team like Al Nasr was unable to beat Al Hilal this season. So the right solution to overcome this problem is that in the next transfer market, clubs in Saudi Arabia must be able to bring in top players from Europe and of course also qualified coaches. So that competition in the Saudi Arabian League can become more competitive and of course the name of the Saudi Arabian League will become increasingly famous in the world of football.

  Football continues to be one very dominating factor in football and you can say without finance, it’s pretty difficult for a club to be able to succeed. This has been seen to be a valid fact both in Europe and now fast rising Saudi League as finance has helped this league be able to grow and now be considered as a very competitive league.  ⁠The Saudi people are buoyant financially and as such there’ll be no fear when they’re spending funds as this will help in boosting the league’s media presence and in turn generate money for the league.

 This serves as a Return on Investment and it’s a step in the right direction for them to pump their money into the football sector. The main issue now is that most of the clubs might not be able to get those top signings from across Europe and as such this makes them less competitive in the league. If it continues that way, I think the league will now become boring and the rising media presence might diminsh.

 ⁠The board and government have to quickly look for a way out before things get out of hand and the possible way out is supporting most of these small clubs as this will help them bring in major European players they desire. The board should also try to see that local transfer is being funded to help the players grow and also help to move funds round the league too.

Al hilal has been officially out from the AFC chamlpion league after it was losing against al ain. The second has been going quite well for al in at this time considering al hilal was not able scoring more than three goals in order to qualify for the further stage. This is the first lost received by al hilal since it was always able keeping the momentum to wni any competition.

Al hilal has been performing so badly this time. Time for al hilal to let him AFC champion trophy to miss from its hand

Karma hits back if you don't play fair game. Despite their impressive run, they are eliminated in the AFC Champions League semifinal against Al Ain. It's evident that Al Hilal heavily relies on Mitrovic, and without him, they struggled to score against Al Ain. But, Al Ain played well, making it difficult for Al Hilal to secure a victory. Congratulations to Al Ain on their success.
Although Al-Hilal missed out on the AFC Champions League trophy, they still managed to win the Saudi league.

In the first leg of the semifinal, we have very good performance from the Al Ain which helps them for having their spot into final of the year's AFC Champions League now they are waiting for the second team which is going to play second semifinal tonight.

In second leg we have won for the Al Hilal, but goal difference were big which they fail to achieve and now have to face exit which is sad but still we have to say better team won in this game now we have just two cups for the Al Hilal as Saudi League is already under their control, and they are going to face Al Ittihad into semifinal of the Kings Cup which is another Saudi domestic cup most chances they will win these cups and keeps things at the top level which they keep in this all season with their performance.

It sounds really extraordinary because Saudi Arabia can invest that much by having five PIFs of the world's top players, which could possibly be utilized by Saudi Arabia by trying to transfer to other teams in Europe, for example.
I heard that Newcastle will try this lucky chance by borrowing a well-known top player from Saudi Arabia after they heard that there is a regulatory loophole that is very beneficial for their team from the Premier League regulations. and Newcastle can transfer players freely as long as they match the price desired by Saudi Arabia.
Yes, over the last two years the development of football has undergone a greater evolution so that these clubs are managed as well as possible and are good so that they are even more professional with the aim of other companies being able to target and invest high profits in them.

However, there are also companies that manage the same club so they can be said to be a multi club owner model, for example Manchester City. And no less for the Newcastle club itself, in 2021 Newcastle was acquired by Saudi Arabia PIF at a very high price of 305 million pounds and after that Newcastle began to have a change of owner and slowly Newcastle began to show its development by trying to mature its team members. first.
After that, under the guidance of coach Eddie Howe, Newcastle's players developed very rapidly because in 2023-2024 Newcastle could qualify for the top four in the Premier League and Newcastle had the right to advance to play in the Champions League as well.

yesterday Al Hilal managed to win in the second leg game, but unfortunately they conceded a goal again and because they conceded a goal, they were eliminated, I don't know what is happening with Al Hilal's defense in the last few games, 5 games in which they have always conceded a goal . Now Al Hilal will focus more on the Saudi league games and has the Saudi King's Cup game. Therefore, Al Hilal still has a great chance of ending this season with two trophies. In the league they have a big points advantage, which in my opinion allows them to become champions if they win the next 4 games. All they need to do is win the next 4 games and looking at their next opponents we have a very optimistic scenario. for the following reason

next 4 games:

Al Halal - Al Fateh

in the last 4 games Al Fateh only won 3 games, they lost in 2 games. so it is an adversary that Al Hilal will be able to overcome.

In this game, Al Halal has the following players injured: Aleksander Mitrovic, Neymar

In this game, Al Fateh has the following players injured: Mourad Batna

Al Hilal - Al Taawon

In the last 5 games, Al Taawon only had 2 wins, and had 3 draws. and an opponent that Al Hilal can beat

Al - Ahli Saudi - Al Hilal

In the last 5 games Al - Ahli Saudi had only 2 wins, 2 draws and one defeat. He is also an opponent that Al Hilal can beat

Al Hilal - Al Hazam

This is definitely the weakest opponent, the worst team in the league. in the last 5 games there were no victories. Since the league started, they have played 28 games and only had two wins. So I see that Al Hilal's celebration for winning the league will happen in this game against Al Hazam

[hahay]

Today there is a match between Al Feiha v Al Taee and yes, it lookslike Al Taee still has to make its bestefforts of course to make a safe gap so as not to fall into the relegatio nzone again. Although indeed, Al Taee willplaying away in this match, but itseems that Al Taee still has a good ability too not to be defeated by Al Feiha. Because after all, based on the results that have occurred so far this season, that Al Feiha is also not too good for home matches and thus, even though Al Feiha plays at home it does not seem to be a guarantee that Al Feiha will win. With this factor, it will certainly be a good chance for Al Taee to still get points in this away match,the point is to get points whether it's a win or just get a draw, but it's still good for Al Taee in this match.

Al-Hilal's elimination from the Asian Champions League was quite surprising in my opinion because they were the favorites in this tournament, even two other teams, Marinos and Ulsan, were placed below them as the favorite team to win the Asian competition, but Al-Ain stole the attention from the first and second matches Al-Hilal failed to catch up with the goals left behind, and it cannot be denied that without Mitrovic in important matches Al-Hilal had difficulty scoring many goals.
It is also possible that Al-Hilal will also fail in the Saudi Arabian King's Cup when in the semifinals they will face Ittihad FC, but before facing Ittihad FC they will compete in the Saudi Pro League against Al-Fateh, even though they are far favorites, Al-Fateh can give a surprise to Al-Hilal, however, one defeat or draw will still make Al-Hilal safe at the top of the standings, and they might choose to focus on the semifinal match against Ittihad by playing several second players against Al-Fateh.

There is no surprise in Al Hilal elimination from the Asian Champions League because better team won as we have first leg game in Al Ain which won by host club with good margin of 4–2 and then in second leg they keep things under well control and not allow lethal attack of bringing themselves to the level Al Hilal also missing their top scorer Metrovic due to injury which is also created problems for them Al Ain is also good club which is having few quality players which helps them for having better end of this even, and they end Al Hilal record-breaking winning streak as well.

Now after this elimination we are having two trophies for the Al Hilal to win and keep their season under well control even they are already having Saudi League into their pocket, but they need to give their best in Kings Cup which is having Al Ittihad in semifinal and possibility Al Nassr in final.

[Webetcoins]

You do not know which team will be gone, there are a lot of teams in UCL that are gone that we did not expected as well, there are many seasons when shocking results happens. Like just recently we have seen Atalanta beat Liverpool at Europa league, that's a good example to show that even better and greater teams could end up losing, I can't say that it's the very same thing, but it's not really that different neither.

I believe that we are going to keep seeing these type of results eventually, we just need to make sure that we do not bet a lot. A single game type of situation is not that easy to bet on, at the league it's different, but at these type of stuff, it's really not the same and I believe that betting small amounts is the key.

Now after this elimination we are having two trophies for the Al Hilal to win and keep their season under well control even they are already having Saudi League into their pocket, but they need to give their best in Kings Cup which is having Al Ittihad in semifinal and possibility Al Nassr in final.

Al Ain is known Emirati teams and tends to finish in top 4 most of the time these last years. This year they are third with several defeats and draws, yet they managed to eliminate Al-Hilal which have a phenomenal season in Saudi Pro League.
I don't know if this match will affect Al-Hilal future results but I think they could overcome it.

Although Al-Hilal missed out on the AFC Champions League trophy, they still managed to win the Saudi league.

Al Hilal is couragous and holding unto top winnings. They are one of the fierce unbeaten club, perhapes their unbeaten streaks have been broken, let's see the new phase of Al Hilal this season. Al Hilal are already Champions of the SPL this season following their stellar performance and stats in matches, they didn't encounter any challenge except for the shocking defeat few weeks back against an average opponent. Al Hilal have always been ontop this season and they have continue to hits more goals to levelled up their performance.

[TelolettOm]

When the transfer window opens, the race to get the best players will begin. I am sure Al-Nassr will again be the most enthusiastic in the hunt for top European players again. But likewise, all clubs under PIF ownership will definitely do the same thing. And I'm curious whether other clubs will follow the same thing, namely hunting for top European players or not. But clubs like Al-ETtifaq will definitely be hunting for top European players again like last season. Because last season al ettifaq also did it.

It is not only Al Nassr, all the top Saudi teams will try to sign the best players when the transfer window is open. Al Hilal, Al Nassr, Al Ahli, and Al Ittihad will compete each others in signing top players from the European teams. Specifically for Al Nassr, Al Ahli, and Al Ittihad, these teams will rebuild their squads because they expect to win the SPL title for the next season. Meanwhile for Al Hilal, they only need to improve some lines, they won't change much their current squad.

For a smaller team like Al-ETtifaq, I'm not really sure that there will be many top European players interested to join it. Smaller teams in SPL have small chance to win the title, their squad level is too different from top SPL teams. That's why I assume the competition for top players will be only for top SPL teams.

 ⁠The board and government have to quickly look for a way out before things get out of hand and the possible way out is supporting most of these small clubs as this will help them bring in major European players they desire. The board should also try to see that local transfer is being funded to help the players grow and also help to move funds round the league too.

Yes, this is the perfect solution. Because if, for example, small teams in Saudi Arabia are not assisted or sponsored by brands or companies that are able to provide funds, then the Saudi Arabian League will certainly have a little difficulty in progressing. Because if only 1 or 2 teams have enough funds to bring in top European players, then it is certain that the competition and viewing ratings will only focus on those 2 teams. And when small teams play where there are no top players from Europe, I'm sure the audience and fan ratings will definitely be much less. Because even in the current season this has been proven. Because only when Al Nasr, Al Hilal and Al Ittihad play, the Saudi Arabian League becomes widely watched. However, when small teams compete it becomes less interesting to watch and ultimately there are not too many spectators. This doesn't mean that players from small teams in the Saudi Arabian League have bad qualities. But the problem is that there is no big attraction (top European players) to watch the matches of these small teams. So in essence, the government that regulates football in Saudi Arabia and sponsors must be able to look at small teams, so that the Saudi Arabian League can be more conducive, competitive and much more interesting to continue watching.

But clubs like Al-ETtifaq will definitely be hunting for top European players again like last season. Because last season al ettifaq also did it.

The Saudi Pro League cannot just recruit top European players if their quota is full to fill European players in their squad. If I'm not mistaken the Saudi Pro League has a rule of only accepting 8 foreign players to be included in the list of regular players so even though the transfer market is open the League Saudi cannot increase its player quota if they do not drop one or two players so that they can be replaced by the top European players they will recruit, and this is a rule that must be obeyed by all clubs in Saudi. If they violate it, they may be subject to sanctions sanctions, it is likely that there will not be many foreign players entering the Saudi League at the end of the season because big clubs such as Al Hilal, Al Nassr and Al Ahli seem to have filled their quotas.

Al Hilal has removed Neymar's name from the list of foreign players owned by Al Hilal, so it is very likely that Al Hilal will be able to recruit top European players, but I think it will only be temporary because if Al Hilal removed him permanently, wouldn't that be a loss for Al Hilal themselves who haven't experienced it Neymar's contribution to the club so I also don't know what Al Hilal will do next if Neymar has recovered from his injury, whether he wants to terminate his contract or whether he wants to continue his contract with the PSG star player.

Al Hilal still has not lost in the league. They lost 4-2 to Al Ain in the Asian Champions League and suffered their first defeat of the season. They conceded 3 penalty goals in this match, which should also be taken into consideration. The biggest reason for the defeat was these penalties. Al ain must be happy to pass the tour. They beat a difficult team and perhaps eliminated the favorite of the tournament.

Today there is a match between Al Feiha v Al Taee and yes, it lookslike Al Taee still has to make its bestefforts of course to make a safe gap so as not to fall into the relegatio nzone again. Although indeed, Al Taee willplaying away in this match, but itseems that Al Taee still has a good ability too not to be defeated by Al Feiha.

With this factor, it will certainly be a good chance for Al Taee to still get points in this away match,the point is to get points whether it's a win or just get a draw, but it's still good for Al Taee in this match.

So at least Al-Taee still has a chance to steal points from Al-Feiha's cage and I think it's very likely that will happen. However, whatever team wants to win and failure to play at home for Al-Feiha can be put to good use by Al-Taee. I think that even if you can win, it's not just a narrow victory and Al-Taee must really dominate the match or at least be able to lead by 2 goals.

But indeed, even if achieving victory is difficult then Al-Taee must aim for a draw because it is very important so that they can stay away from the red zone which is only 1 point away from the teams below them. Al-Riyadh, Abha, Al-Akhdoud would certainly be very happy if Al-Taee lost and they had to justify this with a good result against Al-Feiha.

[Volgastallion]

I think Al Hilal players and the whole team including the manager and the team behind are very sad right now, because they already know they win this tournament a few weeks ago after the win against Al Nassr, but the other aim of the season was surely win the Asian Champions League and losing in the semifinals against Al AIn is for sure a huge blow for them.

[Toro iskandar]

Tomorrow we will see the continuation of the match in the Saudi Pro League between Al hilal and Al fateh, in tomorrow's match Al hilal will host and host at the King Fadh international stadium. And this match was also part of the victory against Al Ain in the AFC Champions League, with a score of 2-1.
In history, while playing on the field, Al Hilal often conceded a lot at the end of this match and Al Hilal was also penalized defensively in the last five matches and after that Al Hilal started trying to find gaps to score goals and his efforts also paid off. After entering the sixth match, Al Hilal began to score goals slowly.

And no less interesting for Al Fateh, their team also has extraordinary experience in playing on the field, namely Al Fateh managed to beat Al Raed with a score of 3-1 in the Saudi Pro League and in this match Al Fateh showed his ability to play on the field very strongly and was superior to The strength of Al Raed's performance and in terms of possession of the ball on the field was much better demonstrated by Al Fateh players than Al Raed players.
And previously the two football teams met in the last match in March last year and the final result was that the Al Hilal team won this match.
And will Al Hilal be able to beat Al Fateh again in tomorrow's match or will it be the other way around that Al Fateh will win this match because of course Al Fateh has set up a new strategy to be able to take revenge for the defeat in the previous match.

[MAAManda]

The AFC Champions League trophy was in front of them after they succeeded in eliminating Al-Nassr from this competition, but they failed to get it because they were eliminated even by a team they didn't expect to beat them. From both legs, they (Al-Hilal) managed to completely dominate the game but the result in the first leg really made the difference. The AFC Champions League has fallen short of their goal, but at least they still have the SPL title.

[rojan]

In Saudi Professional League Al Feiha vs Al-Tai two teams have entered the field. The players of both teams have started to perform equally for which neither team has scored a goal yet. I am enjoying the match to see how Al Feiha team will perform in today's match.  Goalkeeper A. Al-Deqeel in Al Feiha team has started a very good performance. Let's see which team will win the match today until the end. And if neither team can score in today's match, there is a high possibility of a draw.
