Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[PremiumcryptoHub]

Al Hilal struggled to win their match against Al Fateh, they only won by a narrow margin and I saw some players not playing well here, but even so, they still brought home 3 important points, 3 points that immediately brought them back to 2nd place in the standings and again challenged Al Nasr in the title race.

Al Hilal struggled to get a win against Al Fateh I have noticed this indirectly. To be honest, Al Hilal has not yet given up, they have started to revive, as they withstood the pressure and achieved victory against Al Fateh in this round, as a result we saw that they were able to secure second place in the table again by earning three points from this game. In my opinion, yesterday's victory in round twenty-sixth was an inevitable thing for this team because they must reduce the points gap with Al-Naser, now that is possible because we can really see that the difference in points between them and Al Nassr has reduced to three after the twenty sixth game.

The fact that Ronaldo was missing and they still had a ferry dominant victory must be upsetting Ronaldo more than it makes him happy. He is the type of egotistical player that wants all the credit to himself and because of that I think we could see him be upset when the team does better without him.

In fact, this season he missed many of the games, while he did score bunch of goals, he also missed many that they won, so when they win the league this year, he is going to be upset that he missed those games and people will just say that the team was good enough to be champions without him too, lol.

The funny thing is that!! no matter how the media or Ronaldo haters try to spin it at the end of the season, the fact remains that he was part of the team. He scored a lot of important goals that helped the team stay at the top of the table. he will also be entitled to a winners medal just like the rest of the players in the team. and if care is not taken, he might still end up as the topscorer this season because he is only 4 goals behind Ivan Toney who is at the top of the goal scroing chart. So all the dislike and hatred towards him will not change those facts on the ground

Those who are Ronaldo haters never want to accept that his goals and performances in important matches help the team to become win. The biggest thing is that "the team can do better without him" is absolutely true, but it does not diminish his work or contribution to the team. Another cruel truth is that Ronaldo is an important player for the team and since the beginning of the season, Ronaldo has already scored several important goals. His goals have been a big help for the team and it proves that he is still capable of goalkeeping, his performances help the team to become champions. These are things that Ronaldo haters cannot accept.

This is something I don't understand. I rate him as the best footballer currently. Even his haters would rate him as one of the best active players at the moment. But unlike other players such as Messi, Mbappe or Benzema, he seems to attract a disproportionate number of haters. What can be the reason for this? BTW, the Al Nassr management would be quite relieved that João Félix managed to score a goal, after a lengthy gap of 14 matches. Now he has a total tally of 15 goals, ever since he joined Al Nassr. But remember that these goals came against a weak team (Al Khaleej). They have a match against Al Ahli coming up next month, followed by matches against Al Qadisiyah and Al Hilal.

Its great moment for João Félix get back his confidence performance after success scoring two goals at last match for Al Nassr when defeating Al Khaleej, I don't think about weakness opponent team or not but João Félix get back to scoring goals moment against exactly in last match scoring two goals. Indeed not scoring goals in last several matches for Al Nassr but João Félix has much contribution by giving assists in last two matches in a row, actually its not bad performance for him although can't scoring goals but still contribution trough assists.
Overall in this season, João Félix have played 26 matches in Saudi Pro League with Al Nassr by scoring 15 goals and made 11 assists, incredible performance I think for the first season and he has opportunity winning the domestic league tittle.

João Félix is not a player who is able to score many goals each season and this season with Al Nassr in Saudi Professional League is very good for him but if we look at opportunities he wasted, I think João Félix is similar to Darwin Nunez in Liverpool seasons ago. They are both good attacking players, can contribute good things for their clubs but their shot skills are not too good from accuracy to determination and calmness when they making shots.

The success with a first position in Saudi Professional League so far of Al Nassr has good contributions from João Félix but there are great contributions from midfielders and defenders who make their defense system stronger a lot that three previous seasons. It's like a good foundation for Al Nassr to win matches and win the league title in this season and they are counting down match by match till a day of lifting the trophy.

[Tamaperdana]

After struggling against Al-Fateh in their previous match, Al-Hilal will face Al-Taawon next week. I believe that if Al-Hilal's performance continues as it did against Al-Fateh, this match will likely end in a draw or even a loss. Therefore, I think betting on Al-Hilal in this match might be a bit risky. Although Al-Hilal has a high chance of winning in this match, considering Al-Hilal's current performance, it's undeniable that they are currently in poor form. Therefore, I think Al-Hilal will struggle in this match. But yes, this is just my prediction, and we don't know for sure how this match will end. But in your opinion, who will win this match? Honestly, I'm quite confused about betting on this match. While Al-Hilal is indeed a title contender, given their performance, I'm still hesitant to bet on them.

The problem with Al Nassr is that they bring a lot of young and talented players into the squad. But after 2-3 good matches, everyone gets overshadowed by Cristiano Ronaldo. João Félix started really well during this season. But after a few matches, he lost his form and became more like a burden. His case is similar to the other Al Nassr forwards, such as Sadio Mané and Ayman Yahya. And surprisingly he regained his form when his team needed him the most. I hope that he will be able to score many more goals during the remaining matches, as they are very crucial for Al Nassr.

It was a total destruction, the exact kind of results I expected. Al Nassir has now regained their lead by 3 points after Al Ahli lost points. Al  Khaleej started the game like they were going to win, leading attacks and twarting Al Nassir player's plans to penetrate their 18 yard box. João Felix had long wanted to register a hatrick if all his shots were allowed into the net even before the 30th minute that Alhamddan registered the first goal  Al Nassir came back and stunned Al Khaleej with 4 goals in the second half. But then, João Felix won my heart again this night. His failed bicycle kick would have probably won the goal of the tournament if it had entered. I hope Al Nassir sustains their lead until the end of the season.. This season title has to go to Christiano Ronaldo even if it means sacrificing oneself for João Felix. Congratulations to Al Nassir as they have now sit well at the top.

We are watching matches of Saudi Pro League and Al-Nassr football team played very well in this match because they did 5 goals in this match and that kind of performance in any match is not easy for any team And Félix was a person who did back to back goals in this match. Félix did first goal at the 73 minutes when it was need of the team And he gave good rhythm to his team. After 6 minutes he did goal again in this match and now he did goal again at 79 minutes of the match and that team was totally dominant in this match because opponent team performance was very bad in this match and their defense system was very weak in this match and opponent team got opportunity to do goals and they grasp this opportunity at that time. That match was organized in Al-Khaleej Club Stadium and Al-Khaleej Club could not play well in the home ground because they have no performance in the last matches .

The team even doing better now without him has a lot to do with his contributions to the team much before now, at a time this same team was not doing as better as they are now before he arrived the the team, so we can not separate the good form of the team now from his form all these years, he has been the biggest contributor of their newly found form and if now they can do without him, it is a thing to be proud of and he should be given his due credit even in the league as a whole.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Al Nassr has opened up a 3-point lead over second-placed Al Hilal. Al Hilal is still undefeated in the Saudi Pro League but has lost its lead. They need to win every game to climb from second to first place. Their problem is that they've drawn too many games; they've drawn seven times in 26 matches.

It's a fact, 3 points are 3 powerful points and now the Al Nassr players are playing with more heart because CR7 still can't play due to his injury and this has awakened a brotherhood towards CR7 among the Al Nassr players, they know that CR7 needs to win in this championship, seasons have passed and they need to have the victory, this is the indicated moment for him, they can't lose the advantage anywhere in the world.

It's true that much of the team's current success comes from his contribution over the years. He helped build the foundation that allowed the team to excel now, and it's only fair that he receives recognition for that.

But I wonder, will the team be able to maintain this level even when he's no longer playing, or will his absence still weigh heavily in the most important moments? It's complicated, isn't it?

It's unbelievable to think of someone who has such a mindset when it's very clear that Ronaldo is a player who plays an important role for the team and he has contributed quite a lot so those who say like that seem to not see the facts that happen on the field. Indeed, without him the players try to do their best because no one can be relied on in the team, unlike when Ronaldo was there were several players relying on Ronaldo to score goals and bring victory for the team but after his absence this can be proven that Al Nassr has good players and can still play well without Ronaldo.

In less than 20 hours from now, there will be two matches in the semifinal Saudi King Cup of Champions.
The best match will be between Al-Ahli and Al-Hilal. I think both teams to score should be an obvious outcome. Bookies are giving better odds to win for Al-Hilal at 2.1 and Al-Ahli at 3.2 on average. Nevertheless I believe that Al-Ahli is quite good team and should not be underestimated.
The second game will be between Al Kholood and Al-Ittihad. Al Kholood succeeded to reach that point because they faced weak opponents. Their journey should stop here and 1.4 odds for Al-Ittihad to win should be easy money.

I mentioned in one of my previous posts. For some reason, Ronaldo seems to be attracting a disproportionate number of haters. Let's look at the stats first. Ever since he joined Al Nassr in 2023, he has scored a total of 95 goals in 99 matches. That is almost a goal per match. Now look at the other players in Al Nassr. João Félix has 15 goals from 26 matches ever since he joined, while Sadio Mané has 34 from 82 matches. For Ayman Yahya and Abdullah Al-Hamdan it is even worse. And Kingsley Coman, who joined recently has managed to score just 7 goals from his 24 appearances so far.

I think the match between Al Hilal and Al Fateh clearly shows that Al Hilal's performance is not very good at the moment. If Al Hilal were in good form,, Al Fateh would not be able to hold them back and would only lose by a narrow score. But because Al Hilal's performance is currently declining drastically, Al Fateh was able to defend well and only conceded one goal. So with that,, I believe Al Hilal is currently in poor form and I doubt they can recover quickly.

So with that,, Al Nasr will most likely remain at the top of the standings, because with Al Hilal's current performance, I believe Al Nasr will be very difficult to catch up with. So with that in mind, in the remaining matches,, I think Al Hilal's hopes of returning to the top of the standings are quite slim. Unless Al Nasr makes a fatal mistake that allows Al Hilal to overtake the points difference. But I am sure that will not happen this time, because Al Nasr currently has a burning passion to become champions.

Yes,, these two matches are definitely not to be missed, because the semifinal match will clearly provide us with a match with quite high tension even though this is a competition that is basically not very prestigious. But in this round, what interests me is the match between Al Ahli and Al Hilal. I think I will watch this match rather than the match between Al Ittihad and Al Khoolod. Because the match between Al Ahli and Al Hilal will clearly be a bit difficult to predict who will win.

So with that, I am sure this will be quite an exciting match because currently Al Ahli and Al Hilal can be said to have quite equal performance, so with that, this match could end in a penalty shootout. But I do not hope that happens, because I think if it goes to the penalty shootout, it is clearly very boring. So therefore, I hope this match ends in normal time with one of the winners because it is clearly more exciting. And in this match, I will bet on Al Ahli, because I believe with their current performance they will definitely beat Al Hilal.

It's not about scoring bunch of goals, it's about contributing to the team overall. If you had a player who is not scoring bunch of goals but helping you win by pressing and passing and coming back on midfield to allow wingers to attack better or withdrawing defense to collapse on him, these are all great stats that will not show up on stat sheet but help you win the games.

You need that as much as you need a guy who is like Ronaldo who will just score the tap-in goals because he is there and nobody else would be. Ronaldo scores VERY easy goals, but he does that because he is good, if someone else played, during those tap ins, they wouldn't be able to know where to be and not be able to score those goals. So you need both type of players on the field at the same time.

Forwards such as João Félix and Cristiano Ronaldo are expected to score goals, or to assist in scoring goals. And from what I can see, Félix as of now has the highest number of assists (12) for any player in this season of the Saudi Professional League. Obviously players are also supposed to contribute to the overall cause by passing the ball, but it maybe more important for players such as Marcelo Brozović and Ângelo Gabriel, who are midfielders. This means that maybe I need to rethink on my assessment of Félix. Although he is not scoring too many goals, he is contributing to the team in the form of assists.

Felix is a forward while Ronaldo is a striker as with his old age, his favorite position is in the center as a striker as he will have to run less. Ronaldo at this age has been playing with his experience, space feeling and selection in order to find opportunities for scoring goals. Joao Felix plays wider as a forward and in Al Nassr this season, he has been given many good key passes and assists from his teammates. A good season with many goals for Al Nassr is actually helpful for Joao Felix for his position in Portuguese national team in World Cup 2026.

The appearance and good contributions in goals and assists of Joao Felix actually help Al Nassr to compete better for the title in this season. His contributions are considerable but midfielders and defenders at the club also perform better in this season, and make the whole team stronger and more competitive.

That match was organized in Al-Khaleej Club Stadium and Al-Khaleej Club could not play well in the home ground because they have no performance in the last matches .

Felix hadn't scored since like the end of December. And i watched him miss a clean one on one in the first half and i literally said out loud: oh no. Then 73rd minute, goal. 79th minute, goal. The second one was this totally ridiculous volley in the air with his weaker foot. I don't know who does that but it went in top corner so.

And Ronaldo wasn't even there. Mane wasn't either. Both unavailable. Al Nassr basically played their "reserves attack" and still put five past someone.

But the wildest thing of that whole day, Al Ahli were 2-0 up at half time in their own game. Two nil. And i saw people already saying that the title race was over. Then they lost 3-2. Last goal was made in the 98th minute from a throw-in scramble.

So just like that in one afternoon the whole race went from three teams fighting to basically just Al Nassr and Al Hilal.

And Al Hilal have gone unbeaten ALL season by the way. But they keep drawing games that they should win. That's killing them in the table quietly.

They meet Al Nassr in May and that's the title. Straight up. I just really hope that Martinez is fit by then.
