Topic: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 - page 180. (Read 111886 times)

We are heading toward a new week now. There will be several ez matches that can give us decent rewards, and one of these matches is Al Hilal vs. Shabab. Al Hilal is now perfectly topping the Saudi Pro League, while Al Shabab is at the 10th position. It's obvious if Al Hilal is going to win the game soon.
There are two options that i think that's worthy to pick.

Firstly, is total over 2.5/2.75

My consideration is now if al shabab is a weak club and al hilal is still consistently defending its record to be unbeaten and im sure that al hilal will able to beat al shabab with pretty good scores. Probably over three goals will happened in this game.

Secondly, Al hilal

It's obvious that even though al hilal is offering a bit less odds compared to the total over 2.75/2.5 but im sure that if al hilal will able to win the game easily even with narrow score.

This is less risk choice for anyone who is willing to get ez money.

Im feeling good with these choices. I prefer to take less risk choice and my plan to pick al hilal to win this game.

Yes, when you look at the relegation zone it won't be any more interesting because they are the worst team in the league. However, if we already find out who will be the champion, it won't be interesting either, because there is no longer any competition to show. Al Hilal is so strong that they can distance themselves from their competitors and now they are preparing to become champions this season.
Cristiano Ronaldo is not the only player on this team, so it is quite surprising when many say he cannot make Al Nassr even better. Also keep in mind that every time a team plays, they will be playing with 11 players, which means that teamwork is required, not just individual work. Indeed, he is one of the best players in the world who has ever existed, but he still cannot work alone. And if we look at Al Nassr's front line, it is actually very good, but they have many weaknesses at the back so that is what makes them difficult.

This is first season as they open their doors for the world after spending huge funds and having good fan base which is surely going to bring more positive and good things in near future because now next 12 years we are going to have too many changes and improvements while they are already having their first target rights for the hosting Soccer World Cup 2036 and their other vision bringing competitiveness in this league which is not easy with need long time as well even they have enough funds but still conditions and many other factors are going to have problems for them.

In this season, we have mostly information's about few top clubs those have imported players hopefully now next season will be brought more updates and news about all other clubs which are now also going to have changes due to their difference of qualify from the top teams and this will surely create good updates about all Saudi League.

You're right bro. The competition to win the title in the SPL can actually be said to be over. Even though there are still 10 matches left in this season, we can see how Al-Hilal's performance has really not wavered so far. In fact, they still have an unbeaten record to this day. Although for Al-hilal winning the SPL is no longer something strange. Because they get it very often. But if this season Al-hilal manages to end the season without losing, it will be a new record for them.

Talking about a team that is in the relegation zone. Nowadays it has become more interesting. But I highlight Al-Ta'ee, where last season this team managed to finish in 9th place, it turns out that this season they have to fight to get out of the relegation zone. This shows that Al-ta'ee experienced a fairly large decline in SPL. But Al-ta'ee seems to be having difficulty getting out of the relegation zone because this week Al-ta'ee has to face Al-Nassr and maybe Al-ta'ee will lose points again in this week's match. Because Al-nassr has a level of play far above Al-ta'ee.

Yes, you are absolutely right, friend. Al Hilal is currently unbeaten by any team in the Saudi Arabian League. Even a team like Al Nasr couldn't beat Al Hilal. So with this the Saudi Arabian League becomes less attractive. Maybe until this season ends, I think the situation in the Saudi Arabian League will continue to feel like this. Because as you said, the candidate to win the Saudi Arabian League is clearly visible, namely Al Hilal. So with this all the matches in the Saudi Arabian League have become very boring. Even when Al Nasr plays, the tense sensation is no longer felt. So if it continues like this, I think the Saudi Arabian League (SPL) could experience a decline in audience ratings. Because currently the situation in the Saudi Arabian League is like just waiting for the season to end and Al Hilal to win. So basically what else should you pay attention to, if the situation is like that?

Maybe the solution is that next season the Saudi Arabian League clubs must work even better. Such as adding quality players (whether players from Europe or not), replacing coaches who don't suit the players. Because in essence the biggest problem currently occurring in the Saudi Arabian League is that there is no balance of quality between the many clubs in the Saudi Arabian League. The reason is, it all started with the many top European players who joined Saudi Arabian clubs in last year's transfer market. But unfortunately only a few clubs are able to bring in these top European players. Such as Al Hilal, Al Nasr, Al Etiffaq, Al Ittihad and also Al Ahli. So there are still many other clubs in Saudi Arabia that do not bring in top players from Europe. Because of this, the balance of club quality in the Saudi Arabian League has become less stable.

And that's why things like this happen (the Arab League becomes unattractive). For this reason, starting next season clubs in Saudi Arabia must be able to strengthen their teams very well. So that the Saudi Arabian League can be more competitive.

I have previously said that the Saudi Pro League is no longer interesting because the competition for the title is no longer as fierce as it was at the start of the season. In my opinion, this is normal because we are about to enter the end of the season, of course the league is not as tight as it was at the beginning and some The club at the top of the standings is trying to widen the gap with the clubs below it so that they don't worry about being overtaken and currently Al Hilal has done that so that Al Nassr is unable to overtake Al Hilal with a large enough point difference, Al Nassr has had to dash its hopes. to win the Saudi Pro League title because Al Hilal is playing more consistently, but at least Al Nassr will be able to improve its performance next season so that it can compete closely for the title and not make too many mistakes like this season.

Cristiano Ronaldo has tried to do his best and despite not being able to bring Al Nassr to the Saudi Pro League title, in my opinion it is not his fault because he is also very productive in creating goals for Al Nassr, even more than Alexander Mitrovic, I think this mistake is not because of one only parties, but Al Nassr must improve its back line so that it doesn't easily concede goals from opposing clubs. If all the players were able to work together well, maybe Al Nassr would still be competing closely with Al Hilal, but because of mistakes in the back line and easily conceding goals, Al Nassr has lost a lot of points as a result of experiencing defeat.

unfortunately, many people are not interested in teams in the relegation zone except those who support those teams or have some form on interest in any of them. Just like you said, this season is done, nothing much at the top because Al Hilal have had their way. The effort of C. Ronaldo was not enough to make Al Nassr his team competitive against Al Hilal despite the huge expectations people had on them. No champion reigns forever, C. Ronaldo had his chance and used it well.

We have tough clubs in the Saudi Pro League and these teams have proven themselves in all angles. Al Nassr and Al Hilal tends to remained the best teams in SPL. I've witnessed no weak spot for Al Hilal that have been running to the top this season. They have targets and they will achieved them in due time. You know the main reason why players makes moves to Saudi Arabia? It's nothing important except for the huge salaries they earned and most of these European players are just playing for the money and no longer for passion.

Talking about Al Nassr hopes of breaking Al Hilal invincible power, it seems like it will only be in vain even if they bring in star players from Europe, but it won't be easy to beat Al Hilal if they only rely on Ronaldo alone, while Al Nassr midfield and backline players is not as strong as Al Hilal.
The difference between these two clubs is very visible and Al Nassr will no longer have any hope of being able to catch up with Al Hilal point difference, which will make it impossible for Al Hilal to experience consecutive defeats that don't make sense and from this point difference it is clear and it is certain that Al Hilal will lock in this season title.

In fact, there is still hope that a European star player like Ronaldo can give a good award to get the Saudi Pro League title, but this can be achieved next season, but after making changes to the defensive line players to create a strong wall foundation for Al Nassr's defense.
After there were quite convincing changes, Al Nassr was able to take advantage of opportunities when the season started with a more consistent performance and continue to secure wins or at least get a draw to continue adding points consistently.

In last ten years we have Al Hilal five time champions with Al Nassr hold the trophy for the three times and Al Ahli and Al Ittihad its mean it's all about PIF which is holding these four clubs with their huge investments even in last year we have all top players in these clubs which are clearly showing how things are going here in this league and suddenly few days back we have new update due to huge loses now they are not going to spend any penny for the new signing as well because they are fail to have any positive return from their huge investment on top European players.
Even I believe they have done good work but still many things needed to be fixed if they are looking for the better success in this league they have to go wide open and also needed bringing new owners in this league for these top clubs which create good competition and also do work for the competitiveness which is important now Al Hilal is going again with all top four clubs are still hold control mean things are not going to be open as we needed.

I would say that "competitive" is not what they were really after, because if that would be the case they would get players who would be free agents and still good and not people who are about to retire. They didn't really look for talent, or just talent, they looked for fame, so that they would be able to say that they are doing fine. They are paying hundreds of millions of dollars to Italy and Spain just to have their cup games there, do they get anything from it aside from fame?

They are looking for more viewers that's it, they want popularity and that's about all the things they require. This means that some teams got lucky and got better players than other teams which ended up being the most important part.

Arab League is the latest destination for former European star players today, it is none other than because the Arab League is now starting to be quite competitive and also inseparable from the salary offers and luxurious facilities they offer to these star players, now the Arab League has entered the last matchs of the this season so I think it will be difficult for Al Nassr to catch up with Al Hillal at this time,  although now the season still has 6 games left it is certainly very unlikely that Al Nassr can match or even get close to Al Hillal who have so far performed quite consistently in the league with not losing even once, I think Al Hillal only need 3 more wins to make them able to celebrate the championship this season.

I think the competition in the Arab league today is no longer interesting after Al Hillal running their rivals far enough, but one thing is certain for the failure of other Arab teams in the league this season will certainly spur them to spend a lot of money in the transfer market next season for player spending, currently in Europe many great players who are old and also enter the end of their contracts,  So it is possible that strong competition will occur between Arab League clubs later in the transfer market to get the star player.

The season is about to end and yes the summer window will be open soon probably in about 3 months time. One big window in football calendar is this summer window as it’s in this window we see players moving across leagues and continents to continue playing and enjoying the game of football.
 
 Usually, interests will be made prior to the start of this window as what we’re having now. One of the fast rising league, the Saudi Pro League still want to keep recruiting players from Europe and yes we’ll be seeing such moves going on across Europe. They have been on the wAtch for players like Salah and Lewandowski and though were rejected last season but are willing to even table a better offer this window again.

 ⁠The money yes, it’s quite Crazy especially as these players aren’t in their prime anymore and as such, you don’t expect them to be able to deliver on a very fine form. So I think the clubs in the league gunning for these players, should reduce the money being offered. Incidents like this makes many believe the Saudis aren’t understanding the game of football rather they’re spoiling te beautiful game with this crazy spendings.

 Like these players are already reaching decline stage, so why spend such huge amount on them. If they continue like this, then I think they’ll soon because a dump for players who just want to earn lavishly without having to play on a very top level and this will make the league’s value decline rapidly. Rather they should try to spend huge on local players and transfers as such making the local players sit up and ready to deliver on the job they’re called upon to do. This is a more better option than spending lavishly on the Old European cargos.

Arriving many top players on the several Saudi Arabia clubs have expected with more compete Saudi Pro League but currently Al Hilal keep on the top position without any team can beat them until few matches left. Al Nassr is the expected teams can stopping Al Hilal in this season seems not compete yet and looks over with their opportunity for winning domestic league after remaining 12 points of 10 matches left. I don't sure with Al Nassr can't catch up Al Hilal points in 10 matches left with inconsistency performance and other side Al Hilal still unbeaten more than 28 matches.
Next match, Al Hilal will face the 10th standings position Al Shabab and seems they can't beat Al Hilal and make them keep closer become the domestic league winner this season.

Al Hilal still continues to top the standings by being the only team that has never been defeated, so far in all the matches that have been played Al Hilal have only experienced 2 draws.
This is the reason why they are at the top in very comfortable conditions because of the difference between the points those who occupy second place can be very far away.
Al Nassr, who is in second place, has 12 point difference with Al Hilal who tops the standings and with the remaining matches, it can be guaranteed that Al Hilal will win the title this season.
There are only few matches remaining in the competition and in the remaining matches the team that wins the title and becomes runner-up is very clear and it is certain that there will be no further changes in the top ranking in the future.

Al Hilal will really take over the dominance and also the title after winning last season by Ittihad FC, this is good start for Al Hilal in returning to having perfect strength to continue to be SPL champions.
Only competition this season that can be seen very clearly is about Al Hilal and Al Nassr who always compete to get points to determine the standings.

I don't see Lewandowski in a decline in performance as you said, because right now still many European teams who want to sign Lewandowski from Barcelona, and even in addition to Arab League clubs, isn't Atletico Madrid also very eager for Lewandowski to fill their squad next season?
And even in his current usian, Lewandowski still managed to score 13 goals and 8 assists from 27 Barcelona matches in a competitive competition like today.

At the moment Lewandowski is 35 years old and he is 4 years younger than Ronaldo so I think there is nothing wrong for SPL clubs to sign him, I think the Saudi league has a limit regarding the number of purchases of European stars at the moment, and of course that the limit is to provide an opportunity for Arab clubs to keep targeting local star players for them to recruit apart from european players,  Yes, what you said is true, after the Arab League declared make a loss due to the unbalance of club betwen  income and spending this season, the Arab League made a little evaluation in terms of limiting the use of the amount of player transfer budget, and also still in discussion about the age limit for star players recruited.

Benzema's Saudi move, well, it hasnt been the success story we all thought. The guy's a legend, but transitions are tough, especially to a league like that. My guess? He's not clicking with the team the way he used to. Its a different style, different energy. Like a top businessman suddenly thrown into a new market - disorienting. Add in the whole cultural adjustment, thats huge.

Now, lets be real, Benzema could still make a comeback in Europe. Top clubs look at potential, and this guy won a Ballon d'Or, nobody forgets that. Age? Salary? Negotiators handle that. I've even heard whispers about Lyon. Back to where it started… sometimes thats the ticket. We've all seen the underdogs rise again. Wouldnt be surprised if Benzema proves us all wrong. Talent like his doesnt just disappear

Currently the competition for the title in the Saudi Pro League no longer looks interesting to watch because it is almost certain or can be said to be certain that the champions are Al-Hilal with a long-point advantage, no one can possibly catch them, and that is interesting to follow at this time is a competition between teams who want to get out of the relegation zone. There are around five teams whose current position can be said to be unsafe even though they are ranked outside the relegation zone.

Al-Raed, Al-Okhdood, Al-Riyadh, Al-Ta'ee and Abha only have a difference of no more than four points so with 10 matches remaining the position of these teams can still change except for Al-Hazm which can be said to be certain degraded.
The five teams that are currently struggling will certainly play optimally so that the teams that face them could get unpleasant results.

I will call the Saudi pro league the stupidest party if it keeps wasting a lot of money to buy unnecessary players like him. Lewandowski is on the way to decline from his peak performance, and I'm concerned about the statement from SPL, which said that if the club was unwilling to spend a lot of money again to buy European players.
I think that no more players should be linked to join the Saudi Pro League. The statement from Saudi Arabia is very clear: if the club does not repeat the stupid mistake of wasting money to recruit old players, it will be better for them to focus on their domestic market.
It is not wrong to link the old players to the Saudi Pro League, but I'm sure that the Saudi club will soon be unwilling to buy new players again. Saudi Arabia has stated that it will stop everything related to buying new players at nonsensical prices.
Enough is enough for the Saudi pro league to become a place to dump the old players by the European clubs.

Yes that's correct. With Benzema's wealth of experience, playing in the Saudi Arabian League should not be too difficult for Benzema. However, the reality is that currently Benzema looks like a player who doesn't have much experience. In fact, if you look at Benzema's achievements to date, he has achieved a lot. For example

• Become the top scorer in La Liga in the 2021-2022 season.
• Become the best player in UCL.(2021-2022)
• Received the Ballon d'Or award in 2022.

Apart from that, Benzema has made many other achievements during his career in the world of football to date. So when Benzema experienced a very significant decline in performance, I also really didn't expect it. Because if you look at other European players who are currently playing in the Saudi Arabian League, such as Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Talisca and Mitrovic, they are all performing quite well. However, Benzema actually had difficulty showing his best performance.

In fact, if you look at the comfort of the country, Saudi Arabia is a Muslim-majority country. So Benzema should be happy about this and even more enthusiastic about being able to play longer in Saudi Arabia, because Benzema is a Muslim.

And it's true, until now there have been no clear rumors regarding Benzema's move from Al Ittihad. However, I also agree with you regarding Benzema's prediction that if he moves clubs it will definitely be to Ligue 1 Francis. The reason is that Benzema is now quite old, so having a career in the country where he was born is certainly not bad. Because of course Benzema will definitely be closer to his family.
