Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[Emitdama]

Al-Nassr Just changed their position after every match and their fans are continously in the confusion that in which position there favourite team will end in this season. Because Al-Hilal is gradually going up and their chances of winning are also enhanced. So, i think this is a very critical situation for Al-Nassr and they should be more conscious in their upcoming matches. Because now there any single mistake can lead them towards the big problems and maybe pushed them back from their desired position. Because Al-Hilal will try their best to take an advantage of the moment where Al-Nassr shows any carelessness. But still I personally favour Al-Nassr and want to see them on the top position and I think they should manage this position at any cost as they have the world class player a strong squad.

I would say that it is not looking that crazy, they are the first place and they are going to finish at the first place as well. They have been winning all of their recent games as well and have taken the gap to eight points now as well. Albeit the second place has one more game to play so the gap could drop to five points but that is fine as well.

We have like five games or so left if I am not wrong, and that means that with five games, they just need to win enough to not lose five points in those games, that is 10 points out of 15 and they are the title winners, that seems like a very big possibility for a team that won 5+ of their last games. I think even with like 3 wins out of 5 games, they would win, because out of 5 games, I am sure nobody else will go 5 out of 5.

[Gallar]

I think Al-Nassr is not giving their best these days because the results of every match are not match with the expectations of the fans. Because this match was a chance for them to score more goals and manage or enhance the points gap with other runner ups. But they just successfull to score only one goal which is I think a great disappointment for their fans. This is a time where they can not afford any mistake or any careless behavior towards any thing. They have to be very consistent and reliable so that they can achieve their targeted position. And their fans are eagerly want to see them lift the trophy. Because after this match which was against a weak team they were not able to. Perform properly or in the expected way so in the next their matches with big clubs what they will do in that matches.

While it's true that Al Nasr didn't score many goals against Al Etipaq in their previous match,, I don't think that's a big deal. The most important thing for Al Nasr right now is to get three points. That's what will ultimately determine whether Al Nasr can win the Saudi Arabian League. In my opinion,, goals are just a bonus. That's why I don't mind if Al Nasr can't score many goals in their matches.

The most important thing is for Al Nasr to win every match,, and that's enough to lead them to the title. Regarding Al Nasr's matches against big teams, I don't think we need to worry right now, as Al Nasr has certainly prepared well. So,, we don't need to panic too much right now, as I'm sure the Al Nasr players are motivated enough to win. So it is certain that they will perform optimally in the upcoming match.

[Sithara007]

This is slightly misleading. Al Hilal doesn't trail by 8 points. They are yet to play their 29th round match, while Al Nassr has done so. In case Al Hilal wins their match (which looks very likely at this point), then the gap between these two teams will be 5 points. But the match is not going to happen anytime soon. Next week Al Hilal has a match against Al Kholood, in the final match of Kings cup. Their next match in the Saudi Professional League (vs Damac) is a week after that. The SPL points table will look a bit messed up until then.

Currently there are 8 points separating Al Nassr and Al Hilal, I know Al Hilal are yet to play their 29th round match but their points difference is 8 points in the standing, until we see Al Hilal result against Damac, even though Damac is a weak team to them which we don't what the outcome might be because football is unpredictable. Although I also know that Al Hilal is going to win this game because is the only team that haven't been beaten, and I'm confident they cannot afford to lose at this crucial point that the Saudi professional league has turned to a big challenge.

Al Hilal getting anything less than 3 points from the next match is highly improbable. So let's go with the assumption that the gap between Al Hilal and Al Nassr is still 5 points. Same with Al Ahli as well. They are also yet to play their 29th round match. So the difference as such is 7 points. But as things stand, Al Ahli has near zero chance of winning the Saudi Professional League trophy this time. The big match is coming up in 29th April BTW. Al Nassr will take on Al Asli, and in case the former can get a win, then it is almost guaranteed that they will be the SPL champions for this season.

Al Nassr now has five more matches to play, and this will certainly make Al Nassr fans want to see Al Nassr finish the remaining matches well, certainly not losing to the team they face. However, I think Al Nassr's upcoming matches will have strong opponents, and this will certainly make it difficult for Al Nassr to win. Al Nassr's upcoming opponents, such as Al Qadisiyah, Al Ahli, and Al Hilal, are strong teams and could hinder Al Nassr's chances of becoming champions. Do you think Al Nassr can beat these teams? Because the strength of these teams cannot be underestimated

Later, we will see Al Nassr play against Al Wasl in the AFC Cup. According to the news I read, Ronaldo will also appear in that match. If Ronaldo appears, the match will certainly be even more exciting because Al Nassr's game will certainly be even better. But I think Al Nassr has a big potential to win that match. What do you think? But I hope Al Nassr wins the trophy in the SPL and the AFC Cup

I agree with you on this point, as Al Nasr's players are undoubtedly highly motivated to sweep all remaining matches with wins. This would ensure their title as Saudi Arabian League champions. However,, it's important to remember that the teams Al Nasr will face in the upcoming matches are also very strong. Therefore, I don't think motivation alone will be enough to ensure Al Nasr wins. They must play well and minimize any gaps to avoid making mistakes.

The teams they will face in the upcoming matches are Al Ahli,, Al Hilal, and Al Qadisiyah, which will certainly be tough for Al Nasr to defeat. Therefore,, I believe Al Nasr needs to improve their performance, as when facing strong teams, all lines must be able to carry out their duties effectively. And currently Al Nasr's attack line is a bit weak, I also don't know for sure whether it's just a coincidence or not, but what is clear is that Al Nasr needs to improve this so that they can have a very big chance of winning in the upcoming match.

Al-Nassr should be careful because Al-Hilal was kicked from AFC Champions League and this Thursday will play their last game in Saudi King Cup of Champions so they will be totally concentrating on the league. Apart from Al-Nassr game, Al-Hilal matches aren't that hard.

But still I personally favour Al-Nassr and want to see them on the top position and I think they should manage this position at any cost as they have the world class player a strong squad.

Right now in this situation I believe it's time for the coach of the Al Nasr team to start charging his players and also reminding them of what their goals are as regards winning the title, because it appears the team is gradually deviating from their aim as their performance seems to be declining or unstable. They are still on course to win the title if only they can win most of their remaining fixtures because they can't afford to lose any game at this point, a loss at this moment would mean Al Nasr have forfeited the title to another club.

[bitgolden]

It's clear that Al Nassr has easy games left mostly, and they will be champions unless they make a silly mistake.

It wouldn't be the first team to lose against a smaller weaker team, but at the same time we have to remember Al Nassr has been winning most of their games, almost all games in the recent times, meaning that it's very hard to keep winning every single game, eventually you make one mistake. In this case, one mistake wouldn't hurt them because they are ahead enough.

After playing the 29th round, it seems that Al Nassr has mostly easy matches ahead of them and if they don't make any stupid mistakes, the title will be theirs, at this stage it seems to me that this SPL team has achieved equal success in the AFC Cup as well as maintaining their league. In fact, today the SPL league leader reached the final of this tournament after snatching a one-sided victory against Al Asal in the quarter-finals of the AFC Cup, but did you notice at this stage that Ronaldo is only 31 goals away from his 1000th goal milestone, in fact this player is capable of scoring goals consistently as proven by the fact that they opened the scoring in this AFC Cup match today.

Two matches that Al Nasr must be wary of are against Al Ahli and Al Hilal, but Al Nasr only needs to win one of these difficult matches if they can't win both, Ah Ahli is a match that they are likely to win, then there are no difficult matches in the rest of the season except against Al Hilal (which if they lose), this means that assuming the other matches go smoothly the final points difference will be 2 points even if Al Hilal wins all the remaining matches, the title will still be Al Nasr.

It is not just the two matches against Al Hilal and Al Ahli. They should be wary about the other match against Al Qadisiyah as well (3rd May). At the moment, they are no.4 in the points table and the gap between them and Al Ahli is marginal. And they do have a reputation of being giant killers. Last month, Al Qadisiyah managed to defeat Al Ahli by a margin of 3-2. They have two very talented forwards in Mateo Retegui and Julián Quiñones. Anwyay, in all these three matches the advantage will be with Al Nassr. And they don't need to win them as well. Even draws in all of these matches will guarantee that they finish at the top of the table.

[tygeade]

Things never look that simple enough. Just because you are ahead, doesn't mean that it's guaranteed that you will win the league. Right now 5 games left and while the gap is 8 points, it could be five points with the extra game. And five games five points doesn't guarantee anything. If they have two losses in those five games, suddenly they are down.

This is why we have nothing certain just yet. I think it should be a bit more before we can decide who is the winner here. Obviously I am not stupid, I can see Al Nassr has the highest chance of winning and that is what we are going to see, but that doesn't mean that it will be guaranteed situation, we have to make sure that we are going to end up with something that will be undecided for now.

Al Wasl was defeated by Al Nassr in the ACL yesterday with a score of 0-4. The Al Nassr players seemed to really enjoy the match, and Ronaldo was also seen smiling a lot because Al Wasl was easily defeated by Al Nassr. Ronaldo scored first in that match, and Martinez, Alamri, and Mane also scored in that match. I initially thought Felix would score in that match, but it turned out he didn't. Now Al Nassr has qualified for the ACL semifinals, and Jorge Jesus certainly needs to be careful because in the semifinals, the team that Al Nassr will face is definitely a strong team. And honestly, I hope Al Nassr can win the ACL trophy this season.

Currently, Al Nassr's performance is good in SPL and not SPL, but what is certain is that we don't know whether Al Nassr will win a trophy or not in SPL because of course the competition is still continuing in SPL, especially since the opponents that Al Nassr will face in the next match are strong teams, so Al Nassr must perform better in the next match and now I am curious about Al Nassr's next match. But what Al Nassr fans are hoping for now is to see Al Nassr win many trophies this season. Jorge Jesus certainly now has to make a better strategy because the team that will face Al Nassr will look for Al Nassr's weaknesses.

It’s fair to treat a 5 point lead as though the opposition had already won, even though they still have matches to play. We have a comfortable lead, but there are still seven matches left to play before the season ends, so we must remain focused at all times; however, I’m sure Cristiano Ronaldo will make sure his teammates stay on the right track.

Al Nassr is getting closer to winning the Saudi Pro League title, and this is why people will keep talking about Cristiano Ronaldo. If Al Nassr wins the SPL, it means it will take Ronaldo four seasons to finally deliver a title to Al Nassr.
I estimate the point gap with Al Hilal to be 5 because I believe Al Hilal will win against the team they’re set to face in Matchday 29.
With five games remaining, while it’s not entirely secure for Al Nassr yet, I believe their chances of maintaining the point gap over Al Hilal are achievable.
I don’t think all of this has been orchestrated by the majority shareholders of Al Nassr and Al Hilal.

Al Nassir is very serious with the league this season and I hope they succeed in lifting it to help Christiano maintain his reputation in the league. Christiano Ronaldo has been very helpful since the season started and even since his arrival at Saudi Arabia. He deserves every praise because he has also been booed since the team was messing up and not winning anything. How I wish they will also win the AFC championship to make up for his years.

Al Hilal has been the biggest nightmare for Ronaldo since his arrival at Saudi Arabia but it seems like the spell is about to be broken by Jorge Jesus. This Al Nassir case has also shown that managers really matters a lot because I see it as the coach's influence on the team. If Ronaldo wins the league, he will be among few players who have won the league titles with 4 or more leagues. 5 points clear on top and even though they still have a game with Al Ahli, I am optimistic that Al Nassir will win the league.

[Slow death]

Things never look that simple enough. Just because you are ahead, doesn't mean that it's guaranteed that you will win the league. Right now 5 games left and while the gap is 8 points, it could be five points with the extra game. And five games five points doesn't guarantee anything. If they have two losses in those five games, suddenly they are down.

This is why we have nothing certain just yet. I think it should be a bit more before we can decide who is the winner here. Obviously I am not stupid, I can see Al Nassr has the highest chance of winning and that is what we are going to see, but that doesn't mean that it will be guaranteed situation, we have to make sure that we are going to end up with something that will be undecided for now.

I've been saying the same thing. Arsenal in the Premier League was in the same situation as Al Nassr is now, and look, they won't even be champions, at least I'm convinced of that. That's why the Al Nassr players shouldn't be fooled; they still have many games left, and they don't have a big points advantage. As you rightly said, 5 points are achievable with just two defeats. Knowing that they still have games against difficult opponents, they better focus intensely.

If they were in the position they are in, with 7 points in the lead and only 2 games left, then they could celebrate. But as long as the math allows Al Hilal to have a good chance of catching them, then Al Nassr fans like me have to restrain themselves and not celebrate too soon. Football is too unpredictable; you never know when good players on a team will get injured and all the team's effort will be completely destroyed.

Yes,, if you think about it more deeply, your assumption is absolutely correct. Because basically, as long as the season isn't over, or at least there are only one or two matches left, it's clear we can't conclude that Al Nasr will be crowned champions of the Saudi Arabian League. Moreover, after this, Al Nasr will face strong teams, which certainly could result in Al Nasr getting less than satisfactory results,, such as a draw or even a loss. So, for that reason, I agree with you that we really need to wait a little longer to conclude who will truly be the champion of the Saudi Arabian League this season.

But even so,, for now, I'll try to be optimistic about Al Nasr, because they currently look much better. Furthermore, Al Nasr defeated Al Wasl in the Champions League last night, thus Al Nasr has now successfully advanced to the next round. So with that in mind, hopefully Al Nasr can truly become champions of the Champions League too. Because even though this is the second caste competition in Asia, being able to win in this competition is also quite good in my personal opinion.

[Not your key not your BTC]

Al-Nassr Just changed their position after every match and their fans are continously in the confusion that in which position there favourite team will end in this season. Because Al-Hilal is gradually going up and their chances of winning are also enhanced. So, i think this is a very critical situation for Al-Nassr and they should be more conscious in their upcoming matches. Because now there any single mistake can lead them towards the big problems and maybe pushed them back from their desired position. Because Al-Hilal will try their best to take an advantage of the moment where Al-Nassr shows any carelessness. But still I personally favour Al-Nassr and want to see them on the top position and I think they should manage this position at any cost as they have the world class player a strong squad.

I don't think the situation is too worrying, as Al Nassr will remain at the top of the table until the end of the season and claim the Saudi Pro League title. Al Nassr currently have an eight-point lead over Al Hilal, and with seven matches remaining, Al Nassr will certainly be striving to maintain their lead and make their dream of winning the Saudi Pro League a reality. Furthermore, with the remaining seven matches, Al Nassr will face relatively weak teams, and with a squad full of world-class players, it won't be too difficult for Al Nassr to sweep all remaining matches with wins.

[jaberwock]

It's true that Al Nassr has done as well as hoped for after that bad period. They started the season great, like 9 or 10 wins in a row, but then they had a period where they lost many games and they dropped from first place, so everyone doubted them again which was normal, but then they started to win again and kept on winning, they have been winning many in a row now. This is why I have a feeling that, unless they go back to that bad period, they are on a great streak right now and do not feel like they will give up just yet.
