Few years back we have good intention about soccer in this region with Qatar and UAE spend huge funds, but sadly they were not smart like these Saudis and have no intention like them but Saudi League organizers done good job, and they spend nearly $1 Billion and having good fan base and intention from the soccer world which make things good for them, and now they are already having hosting rights of Soccer World Cup 2034 which is giving them good advantage for develop good structure for this game in this country.

They bring few top quality players from around the world which are giving them good exploration and their league quality is also better which is the best thing if they are able to keep things at this level then surely we will have good development in near future which will help this game in this region, and they will be able to have more attraction from the world about this all with now good thing happening many countries are broadcasting this league into their sports channels which will create good atmosphere about them specially Cristiano Ronaldo who is ambassador for the league as well doing good work for this league.

Each team has played 27 matches, playing 27 matches, each team is in a certain position of the point table with a certain point. In this case, Al Hilal is in the first position of the point table with the most points. Although Al Hilal is at the top of the points table, Al Nasser is second, although there is a considerable gap between Al Hilal and Al Nasser's points.  I will definitely support you that it will not be a very easy task to stop Al Hilal this season for anything as this team is already far ahead of the second placed team in the points table and their performance is still consistent. Injuries are undesirable but if injury problems are not present in this club, this club will surely win the Saudi League title this season.  

Neymar is trying to recover from the injury and it is believed that he may play for Al-Hilal this season, in which case Al-Hilal's attack will be stronger.

Guys, what's your opinion on Cristiano Ronaldo at this moment?  

Actually, I don't think he should be so serious about his career anymore, the way he is trying to be. It still definitely looks like he wants to play the next World Cup and also he actually believes he will be able to win the next World Cup with Portugal. and the way he has been behaving in the field recently, it has not been very good. He could do those things and get away with them when he was in form and in his prime.

Well, I guess people could say that he is still in form. but being in form in Real Madrid or Juventus is very different from being in form in the Saudi league. It is really sad to see a player literally becoming the villain like this. But he should also understand that if he reacts to these things, people will do these things more and more.

Finally, Al Ain successfully stopped Al Hilal's record of 34 wins in all competitions after winning with a score of 4-2 in the first leg of the AFC Champion League semifinals. After many teams difficult for defeating Al Hilal still has any AFC Champion League teams giving the first defeat for Al Hilal and their 34 winning record stopped. But Al Hilal opportunity with treble winner in this season not close yet because still has second leg match and need to win above three goals if want qualify to final round of AFC Champion League.

In domestic league match, Al Hilal will face Al Ahli and seems make rotation for second AFC Champion League match, has 12 points remaining from Al Nassr seems secure with top position awhile for Al Hilal in domestic league and want to focus awhile win second leg match in AFC Champion League.

Regarding Al Hilal's performance in the Saudi Pro League, there is no doubt that it is impossible for Al Nassr to overtake if Al Hilal does not experience a decline and for some reason I feel that Al Hilal will not experience a decline as long as the players are still fit and have strong stamina, Al Hilal experienced a decline only if many of its players were injured and so far there have been no problems regarding its players except for what happened to Neymar, however Al Hilal can still cover this gap well. The players it has are playing very solidly and are able to work together well, so according to I Al Hilal will get all the trophies in the Saudi League in every competition he competes in. He has secured 2 trophies and 2 more have reached the semifinals.

Yes, that's why I'm very confident that Al Hilal will get 4 trophies even though Al Nassr still has 1 competition and has reached the semifinals but its strong competitor Al Hilal is also still in the same competition. Al Ittihad certainly can't stop Al Hilal in that meeting even though in the end Al Nassr was able to beat Al Khaleej in the semifinals. I think Al Nassr will face Al Hilal again in the final and we all know what will happen when they meet. I just hope luck will be on Al Nassr's side at that time, at least Al Nassr will get 1 trophy.

Yes, it's true, Al Taawon is indeed superior to Al Khaleej. Because as you said, the rankings of the two teams (Al Taawon and Al Khaleej) in the Saudi Arabian League are quite different. So with this we can conclude with certainty that Al Taawon's performance is indeed superior to Al Khaleej. Because if you look at the head to head record from the last 5 meetings, the result is that Al Taawon is indeed superior to Al Khaleej with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. But even so, the last meeting between Al Taawon and Al Khalej in the Saudi Arabian League ended in a draw. So in this meeting the potential for a win and a draw is wide open for Al Taawon or Al Khaleej.

Apart from that, this match will actually be a good opportunity for Al Khaleej to move up in the Saudi Arabian League standings. The reason is that currently Al Khaleej is ranked 10th with a score of 34 points. Meanwhile, the team in 9th place (Al feiha) and 8th place (Damac) collected 35 points. So if Al Khaleej can win the match against Al Taawon, Al Khaleej can move up 2 places. The reason is that Al Feiha's opponent, who is ranked 9th, will face a very strong team, namely Al Nasr. So it is very likely that Al Feiha will lose. Meanwhile, Damac, who is ranked 8th, will face Al Okhdood. And there is a big possibility that Damac can win or draw this match.

Therefore, if Al Khaleej can win against Al Taawon then Al Feiha loses to Al Nasr and Damac can draw with Al Okhdood. So, Al Khaleej is certain to be able to climb to 8th place in the Saudi Arabian League standings. Therefore, in this match Al Khaleej will definitely try their best to win the match. And I personally will try my luck, and will bet on Al Khaleej.

Yeah Al-Hilal has locked the first place since they still hold an unbeaten record Al-Hilal does not give gap to Al-Nassr to approach the top of the standings and this is until the end of the season, as you said the only chance for Al-Nassr to get a trophy this season is the King Cup so they will focus on this tournament but the problem is Al-Hilal is also in this tournament :Dwe know how Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr are in the same tournament, I mean Al-Hilal does not give Al-Nassr the opportunity and al-Nassr always loses. I won't be surprised if Al-Hilal wins 4 trophies this season they have secured a Saudi Super Cup trophy and the league title is also in sight then wait for 2 more trophies ACL and King Cup.

Yep. Saudi have been successful to attract the attention of people around the world. Sure, they spent a lot of money because it is the only way to ensure the star players joining Saudi league. I think they deserve to earn huge money in Saudi, they have made a big decision to play in a lower level of competition. Ronaldo is the pioneer of all the star players, he has a big role in improving the popularity of Saudi league.

It is normal if SPL matches have started to be broadcast in various countries around the world. Since the high interest of all football fans around the world to see the star players playing in Saudi league, it will be the advantage to broadcast the matches.

Honestly, I'm surprised with this result. Sure, without Bono and Aleksandar Mitrovic, Al Hilal can't play with their best performance. However, I think the level of Al Hilal should be much better than Al Ain even with no Bono and Aleksandar Mitrovic in the lineup. This may be just an unlucky day for Al Hilal, they still have a chance to win with big scores in Leg 2. It will be a home match for Al Hilal, the chance looks quite open.

Saudi King Cup of Champions will most likely be played between Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr again and Al-Hilal is expected to win another time in my opinion.
In this round of Saudi Pro League, Al-Hilal will have a bit difficult match against Al-Ahli comparing to Al-Nassr which will face Al Feiha.
Anyway, I expect both Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr teams to win their games.

The league still have 7 matches remaining before ended and seems it's hard for Al Nassr to taking over first place from Al Hilal and of i am not mistaken mathematically Al Hilal only required 3 wins again to lock first place and became an the champion of this season and for Al Nassr unfortunately they have to lost from Al Hilal at Saudi Super Cup and because it's almost impossible to gets Saudi Pro League trophy then now Al Nassr last chance to gets the trophy only from King Cup but tomorrow Al Nassr will fight against Al Fayha
According to the head to head statistics Al Nassr is too strong for Al Fayha because from 5 latest meetings Al Nassr can win 4 times and 1 draw so these records is proven Al Nassr probably will gets easy win from Al Fayha and about squad condition i can see Al Nassr in the good shape because all of their players in the good fitness including Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr win has odds @1.46 indeed this is low odds but i think it's easy money because big possibility Al Nassr will being an the winner of this match

Al-Nassr are really wanting to invest in their team and that’s quite impossible when the club doesn’t have the financial capacity to do that and when you look at the club, you see most of it’s finances goes to offsetting the salary of Ronaldo. Now the thought of them getting Rid of Ronaldo tries to set in but it’s not quite possible.

 ⁠Ronaldo is a huge factor to the club’s popularity and also Ronaldo was a big influencer for the league and you can say that it’s because of Ronaldo, you have major European players all filled up and wanting to play in Saudi. So I think the option of getting rid of Ronaldo could have a huge effect on the club and the league as a whole.

 ⁠Al-Nassr should look out other options such as investing im the local league. They don’t have much to fix up in the club generally as they have to just work majorly on the defense line. The midfield and attack seems to be balanced and investing in local players will be a huge source of saving up revenue and building investment.

 Ronaldo will want to achieve some feats even if he’s to leave the club and as such, I think he’s not ready to leave yet and he should be left to still feature for the club some more. He will sire achieve this feat but first Al-Nassr needs to find the right balance before the commencement of the new season.

It's true that a lot of money has made the Arab league much better known. Because SPL clubs have succeeded in bringing in star players from Europe such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema, Sadio Mane, Neymar and many more. This has attracted the attention of world football fans and started paying more attention to the SPL. including in my country where initially no one broadcast matches from the SPL. but now that Cristiano Ronaldo is at Al-Nassr, in my country and many other countries they have also started broadcasting every SPL match. And yes, the SPL succeeded in attracting the attention of the football world to them.

And just the news that Al-Hilal lost for the first time this season. But not at SPL but at LCA. by Al-ain. Al-hilal lost the first leg of the LCA semi-finals with a score of 4-2.

In fact, I think that both Al Taawon and Al Khaleej do not have good consistency, but Al Taawon is luckier to be in a better ranking than Al Khaleej.
Betting on this match must be careful and you have to do a deeper analysis rather than regret it and I advise anyone not to bet too much on this match because even though Al Taawon is the favorite and many will bet on this club, we won't know what surprises there will be. which we will see later.
Yes, currently betting on top clubs is a little more dangerous and I agree that it is better to bet on matches of clubs from the relegation zone which are more interesting and of course we both want to stay in the Saudi pro league.

Al Hilal may have lost the 1st leg match in the LCA competition but we all know how Al Hilal currently has a strong performance compared to its opponents and I am not worried that in the 2nd leg match Al Hilal will respond mercilessly.

I do agree that it made them more famous, ever since that Ronaldo deal, they have managed to get a lot more viewership all over the world, even though they are not 100% capacity at stadiums because Saudis are not interested, it still went up a bit there too, but the real increase happened both social media and also about the viewership money as well.

They are not doing this for profit, they never did it for profit, they knew from the start that they are overpaying every player a lot and making a loss, but their goal was not to make a profit anyway, they are super rich and they make billions and billions every hour from oil anyway so they do not really need money, they need fame and attention and this is a good way to get it.

I just want to remind you that at this time it is not ideal to bet on Saudi Pro League matches because these teams don't have any targets so they don't care about the final result unless the teams are in the relegation area maybe they still need a few points to stay away, based on my observations at least 4 teams will struggle in the relegation zone Al-Tai, Al- Akhdoud, Al-Abha and Al-Riyadh while Al-Taawoun and Al-Khaleej are already in the safe zone.

By the way today one of the teams from the Saudi Pro League is playing in the Asian Champions League yeah they are Al-Hilal and unfortunately at this time Al-Hilal were defeated 4-2 but this is the first leg match there will be a second leg, Al-Hilal can still be relied upon in the second leg even though 2 goals behind I think it's not a big problem.

Al-Taawoun vs Al-Khaleej match will start tomorrow in Saudi Professional League. In the match of these two teams, Al-Taawoun team is far ahead in the points table so I want to bet in support of Al-Taawoun team in this match.  On the other hand, we can understand how well Al-Khaleej team can do tomorrow, but Al-Khaleej team played badly in the previous matches. If Al-Khaleej team can do well in this match, then the match will be more likely to be a draw.

It's totally wrong and i hope you can read the previous pages about this as some people mentioned how the Saudi Pro League will not be as crazy as it was last season to splahs billions of money to buy the new players from european competitions, when it bought so many expensive and old players. Saudi Arabia must have stopped its stupidity, as it is only harming its league. The league must be looking for a better solution rather than pushing itself to spent a lot of money. EU clubs used this as a way to dump their players.

The league has yet to see a significant increase in attendance as a result of the club's acquisition of so many popular players. The demand for football in the SPL is significantly getting lower with the goes of time which is why Saudi Arabia will refrain from spending heavily during the upcoming transfer season as per the latest news that have been massively published by various media. It is enough for Saudi Arabia to spend excessive amounts of money in order to achieve a short-term impact. Ronaldo's impact is not as significant as when he was announced by al Nassr.



The success of al nassr in securing his signature caused by al nassr was offering non sense salary for an old player like him. Ronaldo's popularity is a key here but it's not making the league can sustain for long term.
Saudi pro league needs to put its focus on to the domestic market rather than try to waste a lot of money to buy old players like ronaldo which will give only short term impact to the popularity from the league.

Yes, Neymar's ability as a leader rarely causes injuries on the pitch, but why is the Saudi Arabian club supported by Neymar not playing? I'm sure I dare to spend a lot of money, but it hasn't been revealed yet, this is definitely a question for the general public.
Yes, maybe this is one of the coach's strategies not to involve Neymar in the Al Hilal club's victory by trying to show the whole world to the original Saudi Arabian players in the Al Hilal team that these players are no less good and have excellent performance. because they have proven that they can also win and become champions without the help of the famous European player, namely Neymar.
Yes, of course, with the success of this victory, in the future the Al Hilal team will continue to develop and become more advanced so that they can increase the level of excellence based on the wins they have achieved so far and this must be maintained in the future.

Saudi Pro League have enter the spotlight and they will continue to sign European players because they believe this is mainly the source to rise their league interms of popularity. Cristiano Ronaldo is the limelight and also a true path that linked other outstanding European players. SPL clubs, Al Nassr and other elite teams was opportune to have sights on one of the greatest player of all time in European football and they didn't hesitate to sign him, Al Nassr succeeded in securing his signature.

Al Nassr and Saudi League can't let go to Ronaldo as currently he is one of the best investment for them and currently things are not favourable for this decision he will complete his contract and even for me most chances he will keep playing until 2026 after this we will be having change of role for him with he can stay as mentor or coach here because they are not going to take any risk for few years until they have something good for this league and few more top players are going to play here and have good experience as well which will increase their competitiveness and quality which are currently most important as they are investing huge funds for this all.

Currently, he is having highest ever salary, so this could be also not easy for him to leave this all, and he can play important role as investor with his son can also start his career which will be also good for the league and academies which are going to start their business in near future as they are having soccer vision which is going to work until 2034 world cup.
