Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

In the end, these two famous teams from the SPL will meet again this season. And now Al-hilal will host the match. Previously Al-Nassr was the host but the score at that time was a draw, namely 1-1. And now I'm curious whether there will be a return draw or not. But I will also hope that both teams score again. But I wouldn't expect a draw. Because I will favor Al-Nassr in this match. Although actually Al-hilal could be more favored.

Yes but this is not considered an important and meaningful game anymore as it once used to be when Ronaldo joined the SPL. The title race is over already and it doesn't really matter how this game ends for Al Nassr. Maybe Al Hilal can still have some hope, but then this game is a must win game for them. Ittihad is barely making any mistakes and this is probably not going to change for the last part of this season. Hence Al Hilal will need a perfect record for those games. And for Ronaldo this season has been all about scoring goals on his way to reach the 1,000 goals mark. I think that was all he was playing for this season.

When Ronaldo clocks 40 years and we heard murmuring sounds from people about his absence in the next 2026 world cup but guess what, Ronaldo is preparing to feature full-time and representing his country, Portugal. Ronaldo wouldn't jeopardize any chance of winning the world cup because he set important game play for himself and teammtes.

You need 11 players to win the world cup. Portugal has never won the world cup, because they are always overdependent on one player. I guess Portugal will perform in 2026, the same way as they did in 2022. They may get to the knockout phase, and get knocked out by some less known team such as Morocco. Look at teams like Argentina and France. They have enough young players to back up Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé respectively. But in case of Portugal, Ronaldo is all alone. There is hardly anyone to provide him with any sort of support.

It is very likely that Al-ittihad will get the SPL trophy again this season. Even though last season it was Al-Hilal who lifted the trophy, this season it looks like Al-Ittihad is the most likely to get it. Benzema and his friends at Al-ittihad seem to have good teamwork this season. This is different from Al-ittihad last season which was full of drama and made the team lose performance in many important matches and lose many points. But this season I didn't even suspect that Al-hilal would start to stop dominating the SPL and Al-ittihad would succeed in taking control. Both Al-ittihad and Al-hilal seem to have very solid players on the field. Meanwhile in Al-Nassr there is still an imbalance between all lines. So sometimes Al-Nassr is unable to produce satisfactory results because sometimes the team collaboration is not very good.

Yes, it is undeniable, Al Ittihad has a great chance to become champions in the Saudi Arabian League. The reason is, Al Hilal as the defending champion of the Saudi Arabian League, currently its performance is not as good as the previous season. Therefore, in my opinion there is no strong reason to expect Al Hilal to become champions in the Saudi Arabian League. The reason is, Al Hilal's performance is indeed different from their performance in the previous season. The proof is, this season in several matches Al Hilal lost to teams that could be said to be weaker than them. So that can be used as a fairly accurate benchmark, that Al Hilal's current performance has really experienced a fairly drastic decline.

I personally also don't understand why Al Hilal has experienced a decline in performance like now. Even though the players that Al Hilal currently has can be said to be almost the same as the previous season. Al Hilal's coach is also the same this season. But strangely Al Hilal has experienced a fairly deep decline this season. So it can be said that Al Hilal with the current situation, will find it difficult to become champions in the Saudi Arabian League. And about Al Ittihad's great performance this season, I think it is caused by Benzema who has started to have good chemistry with his teammates and also with his coach at Al Ittihad. In addition, Al Ittihad was also able to bring in great players in the last summer transfer market. So that makes the composition of players owned by Al Ittihad even better. That is why Al Ittihad's performance is currently very good. And about Al Nasr, I think this team is really in trouble, because until now their performance has not been stable.

Al Hilal football team is ready to fight against Al-Nassr football team. Both teams are playing brilliant in this tournament and Al Hilal team has many big players which can perform well. Al Hilal football team head to head performance is excellent and that team is favorite for that match because this team won most of the matches , I mean that team won 3 matches from 5 matches and 2 matches ended with result of draw and Al-Nassr  football team could not win any match. And we are expecting that today result will also be in the favour of Al Hilal because players are sincere with the team .Al Hilal football team has second position on the table and that team players are in good body language and can win this match easily.

On April 5th we will see a very interesting match in the Saudi Pro League at the Multipurpose Stadium in Riyadh. In fact both teams' body language may be very good in this match because research into these two teams shows that they are much stronger. According to our observations, Al Nassr football team has older legendary players but Al Hilal team has a combination of young emerging players. Even so most bettors prefer one team, Al Hilal Football Club and we also want to keep this team at the forefront. In the last few matches, we can see that the physical capabilities of the Al Hilal football team players are very strong and I think they are a self-sufficient team.

Every league has two strong teams and when a match is played between these two strong teams then the match is considered as a tough competitive match. One such competitive match is going to take place in the upcoming Saudi league where the two biggest teams of the Saudi league Al Nassr and Al Hilal will be pitted against each other. It goes without saying that al Nassr and Al Hilal have bought a number of quality footballers from Europe so the upcoming match will undoubtedly be very interesting. Before the start of the next match, if we look at the points table of the Saudi league, we can see that Al Hilal is in the second position of the points table with 57 points, while Al Nassr is in the third position of the points table with 51 points. That means we can see a considerable difference in points between these two teams. This match is definitely a good chance for al nassr because if they win this match they can close the three point gap with al hilal and this is very important for them. But if it comes to betting then I will definitely bet on Al Hilal because for now I think they have more chances to win this match.

April 5 Al-Hilal vs Al-Nassr fight each other. This match will be most attracking for Al-Nassr. If Al-Nassr beats Al-Hilal, then AL-Nassr increases their point on the point table. On the other hand, the Al-Qadisiyah vs Al-Ettifaq big match will be held. If Al-Qadisiyah is defeated by Al-Ettifaq, then Al-Hilal will be ranked up from 2nd to top. So that match is most importand for all of the team. Best of luck to all of you.

I am quite pessimistic about Al Nassr, because in the last few meetings they have always had difficulty getting points when facing Al Hilal. In this season, I think their performance is not better than Al Hilal if you look at it in terms of statistics.

Also this will be a home game for Al Hilal, which will certainly be very profitable for Al Nassr. When playing at home, Al Nassr often has difficulty when facing Al Hilal, especially if they are the away team. The only thing I want to see is, hopefully this match can be a very entertaining match.

Well, everyone is. They are not looking good,  which makes most people doubt they could win any game. Plus, they are not playing some low level team neither, they are playing against last years champions, and this years second place, so it is going to be a tough game even if they were playing a semi decent team, now that they are playing some team that is at the top, they are going to have even harder time.

Ronaldo could go do his marketing and youtubing and all that, because with the way things are, Ronaldo could try his best and he still won't be enough. And maybe people will deny this, because they love Ronaldo so much, but even he realized his 100% isn't enough to make this team better, so he isn't giving his 100% anymore.

I cannot agree with your statement. You are saying that since Ronaldo is not giving 100%, the team's performance is not good, so he is not giving 100% of his effort in this game.

Your idea is completely wrong because I think that a valuable player, a player with a worldwide reputation, never lacks in his effort. In fact, he is giving his all, but old age is hindering him. Since he is old, it is impossible to get anything better than him now.

He is still giving his 100% and individually he is one of the top-performing players for the last three years in the Saudi Professional League. Age maybe having some impact, but then why he is performing much better than younger players such as Jhon Durán and Sadio Mané? Mané has so far scored 20 goals from his 56 appearances for Al Nassr, while Cristiano Ronaldo has 71 goals to his name from just 68 matches. Aleksandar Mitrović, widely regarded as the best forward in SPL right now has 42 goals from 41 matches for Al Hilal (goals per match is still lower than that of Ronaldo).

No doubt it will be interesting to watch because the tow clubs are the most popular in the league and they have strong squad to compete in this game, Al Hilal is a defending champion and one of the best team in the Saudi Arabia pro league. But this season they haven't shown any good ability in the league they lost some good important games and are second on the league table.  AlNassr has been dominating Al Hilal in their last five games and I believe AlNassr will win in this game on the 5th of April.

In fact, I personally have seen Cristiano Ronaldo give everything he can on the field. And yes, it's just that being 40 years old really means he has limitations that can no longer be avoided. So at his current age it is very natural that he doesn't look optimal. But actually he must have done his best. And see who is still the top scorer in the SPL. And we know Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't give up easily. He will do everything he can until the end.

But I also feel pessimistic about Al-Nassr this season. It's not because the attackers on this team are bad because I still see this team's front line as quite good. But the same problem as last season is that the team's back line is still not improving.

And for Ronaldo this season has been all about scoring goals on his way to reach the 1,000 goals mark. I think that was all he was playing for this season.

With only 9 matches remaining in this season, it is already very difficult for Al-Nassr to be able to shift first position again. Because currently Al-Nassr and Al-ittihad also have a 10 point difference in the SPL standings. And yes, it can be said that Al-Nassr's hopes of competing for the title are almost impossible. but if suddenly Al-ittihad loses full points in 3 or 4 matches then that will give Al-nassr another chance. But with Al-ittihad's current strength which is very strong and consistent, it is difficult to imagine Al-ittihad losing full points in 3 to 4 matches out of the remaining 9 matches. Currently Al-Nassr may just have to keep winning to restore their reputation, not to hunt for the title. And about Cristiano Ronaldo, maybe one of his goals is about 1000 goals and also remaining the top scorer here.

How many games are left so far for the league to come to an end? I think about 9 or less, Al Ittihad currently has 61 points, Al Hilal has 57 points Al Nassr has 51 points. And there's a total of 9 games remaining before the end of the season making it a total of 27 points to be grabbed, I think it's too early to come into conclusion as the points difference aren't that much from each other, 4 points, 6 points, and 10 points difference between league leaders and AI Nassr,  Therefore anything is still possible if minus 10 points  from 27 points.

And about Cristiano Ronaldo, maybe one of his goals is about 1000 goals and also remaining the top scorer here.

If you look at the difference in points between Al Nassr and Al Ittihad, Al Nassr's hopes of competing for the title have disappeared, because it takes a miracle to bring Al Nassr to win the title this season, let alone hoping that Al Ittihad will lose points in several matches with 9 matches left. This is very difficult considering Al Ittihad's performance this season has been very good, Al Nassr's failure to compete this season is very reasonable because Al Nassr's weakness in the last few seasons has indeed been in the defense line.

In the match against Al Hilal, I am quite pessimistic that Al Nassr can win. because this match will be played at Al Hilal's home ground, besides that Al Hilal also has the motivation to catch up with Al Ittihad in first place, so it is certain that Al Hilal will not waste this opportunity.

In the last match played at Al Hilal's home ground ended in a draw, let alone playing at Al Hilal's home ground, of course Al Nassr will have difficulty winning. Talking about Ronaldo, there is no need to doubt this player, he is indeed a monster in front of the opponent's goal but it doesn't mean anything if he can score goals but at the same time they are very easy to concede because their defense line is very fragile.

Unfortunately, in recent years, Al Nassr has not been able to beat Al Hilal. At most, the games end in a draw and, looking at the current situation of both teams, I predict that the scenario for years will continue in which Al Nassr will lose or draw, but will not be able to win the game. I hope that in the coming seasons the club's management will make better choices, for example: " choose the coach well "

Your survey really makes me want to say, "Old is gold". Ronaldo has maintained his individuality in the Saudi Professional League by scoring the most goals so far. Even then, if someone says to Ronaldo, "He is not giving his 100% performance, then it is a big shame for him". However, I would say that Cristiano Ronaldo is evergreen, eternal, and a legend. It is doubtful whether a player like him will be born again in the history of the world.

How many games are left so far for the league to come to an end? I think about 9 or less, Al Ittihad currently has 61 points, Al Hilal has 57 points Al Nassr has 51 points.

Yes but I would take into account trends and consistency of the teams and Al Ittihad is hardly losing any games. I agree that Al-Hilal is still within distance and yes it is too early to draw final conclusions with regards to these two teams, but I am convinced that Al Nassr doesn't have a say in the final fight for the championship. They are inconsistent and widening the gap even when Al Ittihand doesn't win because any draw gives them a point that sets them apart when the other teams lose. With only two losses, Al Ittihad is well prepared for the title if they don't make any mistakes of greater significance. They won't have a long losing streak or at least it is unlikely.

Only blaming Ronaldo unilaterally for Al Nasr's poor performance, of course that assumption is very wrong. Because basically a football team has 11 players on the field, so is it right to only blame 1 player? It is certain that this is not right. Because basically all football players can't bring their team to victory by themselves, and vice versa. So people who blame Ronaldo unilaterally for Al Nasr's poor performance, I think those people really don't see how total Ronaldo is at Al Nasr's. It can even be said that Ronaldo is the player who has the most dedication to Al Nasr. Because since Ronaldo joined Al Nasr, he has done many things for Al Nasr. But the problem of Al Nasr having difficulty becoming champions in the Saudi Arabian league, this is not Ronaldo's fault. But it is caused by the imbalance of the squad owned by Al Nasr.

Because if we look at Al Nasr when competing, Al Nasr always has difficulty when facing counterattacks from the opposing team. This proves that Al Nasr's back line is very bad. Because basically in my opinion Al Nasr often uses an attacking strategy and that is natural, because in the front line Al Nasr has very good players. But the problem is Al Nasr's back line is very bad, and that makes the attacking strategy ineffective, because it is difficult when facing the opponent's counterattack. Therefore, in my personal opinion, Al Nasr's coach is better off using another strategy, which can make Al Nasr's defense a little better, but can be sharp when attacking. And I emphasize again, that we cannot only blame Ronaldo for Al Nasr's poor performance.

Let me ask a very simple question. Who is the best footballer, so far in 21st century? My answer would be Cristiano Ronaldo. Some may go for Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbappé may be the choice for a few others. Then there will be significant support for players such as Luka Modrić, Zinedine Zidane, Thierry Henry, Andrés Iniesta and Xavi Hernández. Out of all these players, how many are participating in the Saudi Professional League? Only Ronaldo. And that makes him the best player right now in this league.

Ah. Two players should not be compared as to who is the best because both are athletes who have made the world of football great.
No one can match the abilities of these two players, although some say that there will be new players who will match their rivalry after both retire, it will still not be the same.

If the question is who is the best between the two in terms of statistics, I would also answer Ronaldo.
Ronaldo has played more clubs than Messi and Ronaldo has always performed great with his contributions.

They are two good contemporary players who were idols of a lot of fans and players. I love both of them and enjoy their playing styles. I don't think we should try to rank them. Can't stop smiling as I was their compilations. The stats are publicly available and both of them have similar personal stats with one or another better in one or another thing. Football is a team sports and some team stats would surely favor Messi. On overall football skills, I'd give Ronaldo the top position as well as his obsession with fitness. On the other hand Messi is much humble and has more team spirit than Ronaldo.

Agreed here. Comparing Messi with Ronaldo is not fair, as both of them are legends on their own, with their own set of specialties. But one thing that I would like to point out is that Ronaldo has always been like a one-man army, irrespective of whom he is representing. It happened when he played for the Portuguese national team, and the same happened when he plays for Al Nassr now. But overall, I have to agree with what you said. It will be wrong to compare two players with entirely different style of play.

Out of all these players, how many are participating in the Saudi Professional League? Only Ronaldo. And that makes him the best player right now in this league.

You make the question as SPL is the best league in the world, when it's not. That makes the question you asked flawed. I like Cristiano without hating Messi & I personally think Cristiano is the best player in the world regardless of whether he has the WC trophy or not. It's because of his hard work in this industry, it's not easy to be like him where he can maintain his performance, today he's an icon for the football industry.

Anyone disagree with my statement?
