Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

[MorganaX]

We're in the third minute of the eight-minute extra time period, and Al Nassr is still leading 1-0. This result will secure them the championship. Furthermore, they will have inflicted Al Hilal's first defeat of the season. How dramatic that would be for Al Hilal, who would only have lost once, and that would have been the match where they lost the championship. They continue to fight in the final minutes, but a draw wouldn't have been enough for them either.

Al nassr have tried and they deserve this one atleast because Al hilal have taken away so many opportunities of winning the Saudi league from them in the past and even other cup competition and finally they have gotten this opportunity again to seal the deal which will be their greatest achievement for a long while.

[Abdulzuruku01]

Don't want to be a hater since everyone thinks supporting against Al Nassr makes you the allegedly GOAT hater but I really want Al Hilal to win, during the start of the season, they (Al Hila) was playing some good football and actually bringing in the results and one can't understate how important today's match is, and going 1 goal down shows a lot of disadvantage. Al Hilal while dominating possession, Al Nassr makes up for it with there counter attacks.

Both Al Hilal and Al Nassr started the season with an interesting performance, I think both of them deserves this trophy with the kind of performance they put in from the beginning. I'm not a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo when he was competing with Lionel Messi in the European league, but here in this league he's not challenging with any top players, he just want to win the league for his team and honestly I want him to achieve it. Al Hilal as won Saudi Professional league most that's why I want Al Nassr to lift it this season.

Al Nassr would have been champions if they hadn't conceded a goal in extra time. But now they need to play one more match. Al Hilal still has a game in hand. This mathematically shows that they still have a chance at the championship. If they win their postponed game, they will be only two points behind Al Nassr. If Al Nassr loses to Damac in their last match and Al Hilal wins theirs, the championship will change hands in the final match. They actually had a huge advantage, but Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates couldn't capitalize on it.

Yeah, Al nassr couldn't just hold on to the win if not by now they would have been celebrating winning the league. The league still lies in their hand because they have to win and if they do anything otherwise than that then the trophy will be gone because even if they draw then Al hilal win their both games the trophy will be given to Al hilal since on goal difference Al hilal has more goals than Al nassr so they really need to win their last game.

[Btcdeybodi]

It's hard to predict who will win between Al Nassr versus Al Hilal because both teams have been on a long rivalry this season. It would have been easy for me to say that Al Nassr will win but for the fact that Al Hilal hasn't lost a single match in the SPL so far is what is scaring me because they will likely won't to maintain that unbeaten record even if they don't win the league title. This match is very crucial to Al Nassr because this is the match that will determine if they will become Champions after about 6 seasons when they won it the last time and Cristiano Ronaldo hasn't joined them that time because he was still playing at Juventus. Everyone wants Al Nassr to win or draw so that Ronaldo will win the SPL before his exit but i just hope that Al Hilal won't give them the nightmare they never bargained when they are almost close to winning the title.

Al Nassr have taken the lead through Moahamed Simakan's 37th minute goal. Al Nassr have been the better side in this game and I honestly think that they're the better side to win this particular game. their visitors Al Hilal aren't sitting back, they're also trying to find the back of the net. If Al Nassr can protect their lead till the second half or probably add a second goal, then in don't see anything stopping them from grabbing all three points

Al Hilal managed to equalize the score in the stoppage time through an own goal and they ended in a 1:1 full-time draw. This draw confirms the rivalry between both teams despite that Al Hilal won by 3:1 when they met at home. By this draw, it is clear that Al Nassr will have to wait until the last match before they can become Champions but if Al Hilal fail to win their match in hand against Neom, it will become advantageous for Al Nassr. This match was really tough and i like how both teams played professionally without any much controversy. Al Nassr should have won so that they would have just finalized the title winners today but anyways, it's good to keep people in suspense while waiting for the final match of the season which is against Dhamak. Al Hilal will likely end the season unbeaten because this match against Al Nassr was the toughest which they should have lost their first match of the season but they couldn't lose so i don't think they will lose against Neom in their next match nor lose against Al Fayha in the last their last match of the season.

[Adiljutt156]

Al Ahli made no mistakes in their tough away match against Al Taawon and secured all three points. Having taken the lead through Ivan Toney in the first half, Al Ahli saw the score level at 1–1 after conceding a goal early in the second half. With Roger Ibanez scoring in the 79th minute, Al Ahli emerged victorious from the match – a fantastic three points for them. Although Al Taawon put in a better performance, they struggled to find the net in this encounter. I believe they played better than their opponents, but they failed to pick up any points from the match.

Al-Ahli Saudi FC football team performance was excellent against Al-Taawoun football team because they did  2 goals in this match and first goal was at 17 minutes which was important goal of the match and Toney tried to be dominant in this match and he gave crucial role. The shots of that team were less in this match as their shots were only 8 and 3 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was 46 percent and they could not perform as well as we expected but still they won the match and they won the match in the second half of the match when Ibañez did last goal of the match and he did this goal at  79 minutes. The fouls of that team were more in number but they won their match as their luck was good in this match

Al Nassr 1 Vs Al Hilal 1 FT
A last minute own goal denied Al Nassr of league win celebration tonight, which means they would have to win their last match to be crowned champions of Saudi Arabia. Al Hilal has a game at hand of which if they win, they will be 2 points behind Al Nassr heading to the final match day of the season where they will battle it out. Al Nassr couldn't hold hold on and maintain their 1 - 0 lead from the first half to full time but had to give up at the near end through an own goal. Al Nassr has 2 finals to play and win for them to win 2 trophies this season, it's a most win for them if they end up losing both, then their season has been a wasteful one. I hope they win both though because they have tried for it.

[Slow death]

Man, they were so close to winning and clinching the league, but unfortunately they squandered that great opportunity by conceding an own goal in the 90+9 minute. It's true that a draw isn't the end of the world, but a defeat would be, but unfortunately this result must have saddened Al Nassr fans because they were so close to winning. Conceding a goal in the 90+9 minute is very dangerous, it affects the players' morale. But the good news is that Al Nassr's next opponent will be a weak one, and the game is in 9 days, with Al Nassr playing at home. So this could be the opportunity for Al Nassr to become champions.

I think that's just the bright side of everything because they still have the opportunity to make the dream come true since they didn't get to lose the game because the way the pressure was coming from Al hilal you would even think that they will score two goals before the game ended but Al nassr held on tightly and got a draw which a huge scoreline for them too.

[EL MOHA]

Yeah, Al nassr couldn't just hold on to the win if not by now they would have been celebrating winning the league. The league still lies in their hand because they have to win and if they do anything otherwise than that then the trophy will be gone because even if they draw then Al hilal win their both games the trophy will be given to Al hilal since on goal difference Al hilal has more goals than Al nassr so they really need to win their last game.

If Al Nassr actually were going to win the league easily, I think this was the game because sincerely this game is much easier for them to win the league than the last game against Damac because this Damac are fighting relegation and that game is there survival so they will definitely be coming all out in this game against Al Nassr. Today’s game is easy because Al Hilal were coming off from a cup final which added fatigue to them. Seriously this is huge fall for Al Nassr, they should have simply won this game.

The goalkeeper had no business whatsoever coming out to take that ball if he hadn’t communicated with the defender, and if he had actually communicated with the defender I thin it was actually not his fault then. Just a second madness, bento was definitely having a great game that he could have easily been the man of the match. I feel like this game will affect their mental health, if they don’t get it out early they might bottle the last two finals they have

I hope they win both though because they have tried for it.

I have started anticipating how the celebration will be until the last minute goal that was a mistake from the goal keeper. It was an emotional moment for the goalkeeper because he never expected it after all the effort he and the entire team had put in the match, and the team has already made good arrangements for the celebration which was delayed.

I still believe that Al Nassr will win the league this season, they now have the opportunity to win two titles, meaning their last two matches are all final matches to be played, so they have no excuse than to win all their matches because losing their last league game might cost them the league because Al Hilal don’t look like they will lose their last two games, so Al Nassr needs to win their last league game to be crown the champions of the Saudi pro league.

[Agbamoni]

What did I just watch in the last minute of the game? There is nothing anyone wants to explain to me on this game, this is basically match fixing. Bento should be inestigated for that late goal.

Al Nassir was a minute to wining the Saudo Pro League. All of a sudden due to that mistake the title race will be decided on the last day. Ronaldo has gave his all in this league I just hope he wins it this time.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Honestly, the only bad thing I see in Saudi football is the excessive amount of stoppage time for teams after the 90 minutes. I don't understand why this is necessary. Al Nassr's celebration was affected by a goalkeeper's goal, a misunderstanding between the defenders and the goalkeeper. Wow, I really wouldn't use it again. That mistake could cost Al Nassr the league title, without a doubt.

[MAAManda]

It was a truly confusing match & Al-Nassr could have celebrated a little earlier, but that late goal ruined it all. I think there was something wrong with that match, the throw-in for Al-Hilal that resulted in OG from Bento. Well, it was a good performance from Al-Nassr, even though they didn't get the result they were hoping for. Al-Nassr have 1 more match left & it's a crucial one. If they fail to get all three points, Al-Hilal will surely capitalize on the situation to win the league.

[whiteblue]

Al Nassr would have been champions if they hadn't conceded a goal in extra time. But now they need to play one more match. Al Hilal still has a game in hand. This mathematically shows that they still have a chance at the championship. If they win their postponed game, they will be only two points behind Al Nassr. If Al Nassr loses to Damac in their last match and Al Hilal wins theirs, the championship will change hands in the final match. They actually had a huge advantage, but Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates couldn't capitalize on it.

It seems Ronaldo was frustrated by Bento own goal, as they were one step away from becoming champions, But bento lost it. I think if al nassr fails to win their final match, they will sell Bento due to his significant error against Al hilal.

They have one more match to win, Or they will miss out on the title. So, If Al hilal overtakes them in the final match, it will be a major curse for Al nassr this Season.

But for Al hilal, they performed well, maintaining their positive streak by remaining undefeated. They have performed flawlessly all Season, Match after match demonstrating their immense strength. I hope they won't be too disappointed if they fail to become champions, given their Impressive skills throughout their undefeated season.

The late goal must have ruined Al-Nassr players, officials and fans early celebration for good!
Anyway until now Al-Nassr chances to win the league are higher starting from winning against weak Damac team or simply waiting for the failure of Al-Hilal against Neom or Al-Fayha which is risky by the way.
Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates should wait until Saturday because they can collect two titles that day, once they defeat Gamba Osaka and hear that Al-Hilal didn't win their match against Neom. It is a weak possibility but it could happen eventually.

[iamsange]

Al nassr have tried and they deserve this one atleast because Al hilal have taken away so many opportunities of winning the Saudi league from them in the past and even other cup competition and finally they have gotten this opportunity again to seal the deal which will be their greatest achievement for a long while.

Al Nassr's draw has truly given them a chance to win a trophy this season, although Al Nassr must win again in their final match of the season. If Al Nassr draws again in their final match, goal difference will be crucial, as Al Hilal will be looking to win their final two matches, especially if it's to secure a trophy at the end of the season. So, this season of the Saudi Arabian Pro League is truly exciting, as the teams' fight for the title will depend on the results of their final matches.

[Sithara007]

The odds have changed slightly in Stake after I posted them a few days back. It doesn't have anything to do with the performance of either of these teams (as they didn't played any matches during this gap). I guess a lot more people are betting for Al Nassr, so Stake adjusted their odds upwards (in order to reduce their own risk). At the moment, the odds are as follows:

Al Nassr: 2.25
Draw: 3.65
Al Hilal: 2.90

I would still stick to my choice of going for the draw.

LOL.. the outcome of the match turned out to be exactly as I predicted. Those who followed my advice ended up with 3.65x profit yesterday night. That said, own goal from Bento was a bit disappointing. Al Nassr should have won the match. Again, it is the weakness in the defense department which is causing trouble for them. The gap between Al Nassr and Al Hilal stays at 2 points, and this means that Al Nassr need to win the final match (against Damac). If that match ends up as a draw, then also Al Nassr can become the champions as they have a better goal difference compared to Al Hilal.

[MAAManda]

Anyway until now Al-Nassr chances to win the league are higher starting from winning against weak Damac team or simply waiting for the failure of Al-Hilal against Neom or Al-Fayha which is risky by the way.

Since they will only face Damac on the final matchday, they should be able to win easily, but considering Damac current position in the SPL standings, it looks like the final matchday will be a bit of a tight affair. If Al-Nassr can finish the match as expected, they can still celebrate the success beautifully since the final matchday will be a home match for Al-Nassr.

Checking the bookies, unfortunately there's no odds information about Al-Nassr's last match, I wonder how the bookies view that match.

[W Jr.]

So, this season of the Saudi Arabian Pro League is truly exciting, as the teams' fight for the title will depend on the results of their final matches.

Al Hilal are still undefeated. Despite this, they remain in second place in the standings. If they win their postponed game, the point difference will be reduced to two. They will enter the final week with hope. If Nassr loses points, their chances of winning the championship are still alive in the final week. Al Nassr shouldn't have conceded that goal in extra time. That way, they could have clinched the championship today.
