Most of the results of this match don't match your predictions, friend. Because the match between Al Shabab and Al Riyadh ended up being won by Al Shabab with a score of 2-1. Then in the match between Damac and Al Ettifaq, your prediction was correct, because Al Ettifaq managed to win the match with a landslide score of 3-0. Then in the match between Al Khoolod and Al Ahli, you definitely didn't expect it, because in this match Al Ahli lost to Al Khoolod with a score of 1-0. So of these three matches, your prediction was only correct in one match, namely in the Damac match against Al Ettifaq. But that's what matches like this are like, the teams competing in this match have almost equal performance. The proof is that Al Riyadh has a ranking that is not too different from Al Shabab, namely only one ranking different in the Saudi Arabian league. So predicting matches with a team situation like that is sometimes quite difficult. So I personally prefer to just do BTTS in matches like this. Because I think BTTS is safer to do for matches like this.

The efforts made by Al Qadisiyah so far seem successful, they performed very satisfactorily and even competed closely at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings. If Al Hilal and Al Ittihad lose points again, Al Qadisiyah has the opportunity to be involved in the competition for the trophy. I don't think anyone expected Al Qadisiyah, who has the status of a promoted team, to be able to compete closely with the rich clubs under the auspices of the PIF. Even so far we can see, they are able to compete with Al Nassr and collect the same points.

The recruitment of former top European players has managed to boost Al Qadisiyah performance instantly, the investment they made is considered successful. If Al Qadisiyah is able to maintain its performance and finish in third place in the standings, they have great hopes of appearing in the Asian Champions League next season. Al Nassr must increase their hard work to maintain their position in the standings.

The calculations for the teams brand is about 700 million euro, which means that when you own 5% of the club, that's just 35 million euro, not really a lot. I am not saying it's a bad deal, of course it's a good deal, but by comparison, after next season ends, we will see him get 683 million total from them, nearly as much as what the team worth entirely, so as you can see, he already got paid most, and he will be paid nearly 100% of the valuation of the team, so getting another 5% isn't really that much of a big deal.

The real deal is the amount of money he is getting and he is getting a ton, he gets paid nearly 200 again, something like 180, and that's a ton of money without a doubt, more than anyone else ever earned.

I Agree and just like you, I was not expecting to see Osimhen in Saudi Arabia this soon. But Osimhen makes mistakes sometimes even if you are a good player and talented enough, toy will still need to make good decisions for your career or you will damage your career by making mistakes. This player was talented enough but he wanted to leave Napoli in any condition and this made Napoli mad.
Osimhen expected his contract with Napoli, so if he wanted to leave why did he extend, and if he extended his contract then why did he want to leave this team?
Having a bad relationship with Napoli was another reason for Osimhen to leave.

Now we are going to see Osimhen in Al Ahli soon while he is still a young player but I think he should not be disappointed because if he tries harder he can return to the greater teams after Saudi Arabia but this will take time for him and he should try much harder to prove himself again.
 

Al-Qadisiyah has been relegated from the Saudi Arabian League's premier division several times. And not wanting that to happen a second time, it seems that the team based at the Princes Saud bin Jalawi Stadium does not want to experience the same thing for the umpteenth time, they are trying to make changes so they can stay in the Saudi Arabian League's premier division.

And of course, that is quite an extraordinary achievement for a team that has just been promoted back to the Saudi Arabian League's premier division. Because this season they were not only able to survive in the Saudi Arabian League's premier division, but were also able to compete closely at the top of the standings. Although it is very unfortunate that in their last match they had to lose to Al-Taawon with a landslide score of 3-0. Which in fact in that match Al-Qadisiyah's position was quite advantageous because right in the 51st minute Al-Taawon only played with 10 men. However, interestingly, the final score achieved by Al-Taawon in this match was the same score as their meeting in the Saudi Arabian King's Cup, which ended with a 3-0 victory for Al-Qadisiyah.

Fatih Terim reached the first three points of his Saudi Arabia career with Hamdallah's goal in the 90+7th minute.

Al Riyadh is actually a team that is better away and I can say that it was the same today.
They took the lead with Shehri in the 56th minute. Fatih Terim intervened in the game by changing three players in the 66th minute and they scored the equalizer with Podence in the 72nd minute.
They scored the winning goal with Hamdallah in the 90+7th minute and became the side that got the three points.
Al Shabab will face Al Ittihat next week and that match will be the real measure.

The match was won by Al-Shabab. They give a 2-1 defeat to the Al-Riyadh. By the end of the first half the none of the team scored and you were right in your prediction till that half. In the 2nd Half we saw three goals and a much open game from both sides. Podence levelled the score in the 71th minutes and then very late in the match by Hamdallah. Both teams played a good game and i would call Al-Shabab to be lucky to win this game.

Both teams had almost similar shots on goals, possession and other stats. Apart from one extra goal from Al-Shabab, there wasn't much difference in performances between these teams.

Al Qadsiah have very big ambitions in the SPL this season, by recruiting several European players such as Nacho, aubameyang and alvarez, in fact they are not only targeting to just stay in the SPL but they are also targeting to become challengers to the SPL title this season, so far they has shown a pretty solid performance and even surprisingly they managed to become a team that was in the top 4 in their first  season of promotion, in my opinion, the increasing their performance at this time indicates that the SPL title competition will be very difficult for every other big teams in SPL, especially I see if they start to develop and have the opportunity to further improve with strong financial support.

The achievements achieved by Al Qadsiah currently deserve appreciation, even though they have the status of a promotion club, they immediately showed their seriousness in the SPL competition so that they were able to occupy the top 4 positions in the standings, but all of that cannot be separated from Michel role as head coach, he managed to develop the performance of his players especially in the defense sector, thanks to his cool hands, Al Qadsiah is currently a club that has a solid defense, Michel only needs to optimize the attacking side of his team to be able to maintain the top 4 position until the end of the season.

AL Nassr is currently in the third position of the points table and the two teams that are in the second position of the points table have the same number of points. Al Hilal and Al Ittihad have been equally forward so far but you said here that AL Nassr will not be in the position they are currently in so how do you predict AL Nassr to be?  Although AL Nassr is in the third position, they have a big difference in points with Al Hilal and Al Ittihad. Do you think AL Nassr can reduce this point difference and come to the number one or two position in the points table? I don't think so, AL Nassr is currently performing if they are able to improve their performance in the future, on the contrary if Al Hilal and Al Ittihad perform consistently then they should be third in the points table even if they perform well.

Cristiano always made that like every star, when you are the start of the team you start to have some will and power of decission and for obvius reasons you are gonna want to have be surrounded by people you trust around yourself, the only trouble with this is how good you are  driving this.

Orange team, really?
The main color for Al Nassr shirt is yellow, not orange.

Al Nassr agreed to sign a new contract with Cristiano Ronaldo but they reduced salary for him, it's still very lucrative salary but a little lower than a previous deal. Only Cristiano Ronaldo knows what he want and why he decides to continue with Al Nassr and in Saudi Professional League. Money obviously but maybe other reasons like being a first player who can score 100+ goals in five leagues from Europe to Asia. He did it in Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and by staying one more season with Al Nassr, he will achieve it in Saudi Professional League.

Money and goals are what he got so far but no title, and it's really hard to win title if his teammates can not play well. Al Nassr have to improve their squad from midfield to defense to win titles in a next season. If they fail to do this in a next transfer season, they will continue to be at either 2nd or 3rd position in Saudi Professional League.

Well.. that's true. Al Qadsiyah topped last year's Saudi First Division League. They were far ahead of the second placed Al-Orobah. Al Qadsiyah ended the season with 73 points from 34 matches, while Al Orobah the second placed team finished with 64 points. Mbaye Diagne and Luciano Vietto were top performers for them, with 26 and 17 goals respectively. But both of them have moved on to other teams now. For this season, the attack is led by Julián Quiñones and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. 

This promoted team has been able to compete closely so far, they have been able to enter the top four of the Saudi Pro League standings. Referring to the existing team squad, Al Qadsiyah is actually not filled with many former top European players. They only have Aubameyang and Nacho Fernandez, the rest of the foreign players are not so well known. But so far they have been able to compete directly into the top four of the standings, they even have the same points as Al Nassr. However, there are still many matches left for Al Qadsiyah to play until the season ends and if they are able to be consistent, at least in the top four of the Saudi Pro League standings, maybe next season they will prepare their team much more competitively by targeting several top European players who can really be relied on. Well, at least for a promoted team with their performance so far, it can be said that they have played their matches great.

Of course those are matches we have today but however I have a reason to believe that the draw you predicted may not come on this match because Al Shabab has compared there performance with Al Riyadh before during their King's cup and they lost to Al Shabab 2:0, so even if this match is no longer the King's cup but draw is something I never believe today, in terms of Damac against Al Ettifaq, the draw you said earlier is what I would predict for them because we cannot analyse it by the last wining of Al Ettifaq do to the fact that it did not take place currently, then Al Ahli will load goals against Al Khoolod.

Al Qadsiyah is a promoted club this season but they are able to be in the top 4 of the SPL and collect the same points as Al Nassr and that is a very good result for a club that has just been promoted, it shows how serious they are in preparing this season by recruiting many players before starting the season and their coach is able to show his skills in improving the club's performance, although in terms of goal productivity Al Qadsiyah looks lower compared to the top 5 clubs but their defense is very solid.

CR will remain playing in the Arab country for another season and will do so with a most unassailable cash deal. however, his association with Al-nasr will not end and appears to be a long-term bond to strengthen the ORANGE team, which is loyal to him against temptations to join playing clubs. The Portuguese star will become part of the ownership team, although with a minor stake that indicates their trust in him.

the club’s directors have also, in a show of their admiration and in recognition of Ronaldo’s impact since arriving in Riyadh, offered him a five percent stake in the club, which would be the first of its kind at a saudi sports club, which is undergoing structural changes and was recently endowed with a new ceo and chairman.

the owners and directors of Al Nasr never doubted such extension, and whether they can offer the team the tools it needs to develop, albeit with two other strong competitors such as Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad, thus the team's quality must improve in that context.

On top of all this is another factor that has turned the scales in his favor, namely the prospect of creating a more competitive team. Indeed, it is only to be expected that at least one or two more big names will arrive at the Saudi club this winter.

Cristiano Ronaldo is looking to surround himself with players he trusts. One of them, as marca foresees, could be Casemiro due to the problems the Brazilian has had with regard to Manchester United's specific situation and the incompatibility between his game and that of the ideas of the new coach.

Today there will be 3 matches that will take place in the Saudi Arabian league, namely between

Al Shabab VS Al Riyadh
Damac VS Al Ettifaq
Al Khoolod VS Al Ahli

In the Al Shabab VS Al Riyadh match, it is very likely that the match will end in a draw. Because if you look at the current performance of the two teams, it can be said that they are not too different. That's why this match has quite a big draw potential. Then for the Damac VS Al Ettifaq match, I think Al Ettifaq will win this match. But Damac is also not a weak team, so my prediction is that this match won't score too many goals. Because the two teams will definitely exchange attacks. But Al Ettifaq has better players compared to Damac. That's why Al Ettifaq has the potential to win with a narrow score in this match. And the last match between Al Khoolod VS Al Ahli, if you look at the last 5 matches of these two teams, it is clear that Al Ahli is superior. Because Al Ahli was able to win the last 5 matches perfectly. Meanwhile Al Khoolod was only able to win 2 matches from the last 5 matches. So with this, I think it is clear that Al Ahli has the potential to win this match quite easily.

So have you all thought about which team to bet on in these 3 matches?

SPL is fierce competition league where the best teams accumulate good results while challenging clubs are ruled out and some are relegated. Al Hilal, Al Ittihad and Al Nassr have proven to be in their best form and winning matches made easy based on their standards of performance. They're leveling impressive styles and keeping track with with excellence. Al Hilal is best team among them, because they've shown evidence and have become acquainted with brilliance outcome. Al Hilal have proven to be in the very top position from day one, they're winning matches consecutively and the coach, Jorge Fernando Pinheiro de Jesus feeling triump about the outstanding performance of his team.

Everyone do deserved winning but only the consistent elite team that worked more harder deserves trophies. AI Hilal stats this season have been on the winning path and following such recommend discipline from the players and the headcoach incredible pattern. 12W 1D 1L is concerning for an elite team? Oh yes we've watch them perform on the pitch and they're quite different from the rest, everything about Al is different, they comprehend pressure and control their streak winnings and losses.

Having two teams that are above Al Nassr with that much points gap could be the reason why contract renewal talks with Ronaldo is taking this long. I mean obviously they are not going to win the league this year, that part is guaranteed already, even they know they can't win it, they are literally just working towards staying third place, they may fail to be even third place this season, so their only goal is to be third place, I think that's the only normal part.

I think aside from that, we should consider how they are going to keep Ronaldo by promising bringing some players for next season, because he would rather leave for another team if they are going to lose next season as well. They need to convince him that they are going to build a team around him that would actually be good, so that they could actually win something. If they can convince him of that, then they may sign another contract, but if they are going to suck again, then why would he stay.
