So Steven Gerard only reaching1 point against the last team and the worst one of the league? Plus in home condition?. I dont really know why they dont expell him from the charge of main coach.
They have 4 super higg level players, Jordan Henderson, Wijnaldum, Dembele, and Gray, you cant do this bad with that names.

I also assume that one day Al Hilal will definitely lose focus and will definitely experience their first defeat, whether it is in 2024, because it seems impossible if Al Hilal faces 34 matches without losing in the SPL.
Nothing is impossible in football, anything can happen. Moreover, if the players continue to maintain fitness, it is not impossible that they can maintain their unbeaten record in the SPL until the end of the season. Currently, if you look at Al Hilal, they are very superior in all aspects, apart from never losing, they also rarely concede and score a lot of goals. Moreover, the difference in points with Al Nassr of seven points will make Al Hilal play with the upper hand in every match they face.Quote
For now, Al Hilal is still undefeated, but if Al Hilal starts to experience its first defeat and so on, Al Nassr will continue to get closer to Al Hilal, with that Al Nassr will be ready to compete with Al Hilal for the SPL title, but if Al Nassr is consistent without losing.
Al Nassr has thrown away points in several matches so it is difficult to catch Al Hilal, of the 18 matches they lost three and drew one. In contrast to Al Hilal, they experienced two draws. Even though Al Nassr has been performing well recently, it's too late, they shouldn't have wasted so many points from the start, especially since Al Nassr's squad is a luxurious squad. 
Al Ettifaq will face the team that is at the bottom of the standings, namely Al Hazm, this should not be a match that will make it difficult for Al Ettifaq to get 3 points, and this victory will slightly reduce the disappointment for Al Ettifaq who in the last five matches was only able to get 2 points. making them only able to be in 9th place, which is below several teams which are dominated by local players.
However, the last match this year that is very likely to be interesting is Al Nassr vs Al Taawon. Al Taawon was a team that appeared surprising at the start of the season but slowly their position continued to decline. Al Nassr is still the favorite team to win but Al Taawon still has a chance because they beat their opponent in the match at the start of the season.

I really don't understand why Gerrard still fails to make Al Ettifaq have good results even though yes, at least Al Ettifaq has a good squad too and some of them are even top European players. Because after all, playing at home against a team ranked at the bottom of the Saudi Pro League standings, in reality Al Ettifaq still failed to win because the match ended in a 1-1 draw. Obviously this is a bad result for Al Ettifaq and also for Gerrard who has still failed to provide good results and performance for Al Ettifaq this season.
But regarding the match between Al Taawon v Al Nassr, it is clear that this will be an interesting match because yes, Al Taawon is basically not the top and also not seeded team but in reality Al Taawon has managed to compete in the top zone in the Saudi Pro League standings this moment. And even, Al Taawon looks better than Al Ittihad and Al Ettifaq this moment but even so, it looks like Al Nassr will still have a good chance of winning this match.
Al-Riyadh vs Damac two teams match has already started in Saudi Professional League. Now Al-Riyadh is leading by 1 goal. I have placed a bet in support of Damac team in today's match. It seems I can't win today's bet. But still if Damac team plays well. If they can score, there is a chance to win today's bet. However, Al-Riyadh team has started to perform very well. A. Gray scored the first goal in 51 minutes. Now I'm worried because Damac team players started the game very bad. Now if Damac can score 1 goal, Damac team can draw the match. I might not win the bet.
The last 10 minutes of the mtch were coming to a close and the hosts were still able to keep their score. But it's still very risky for them, because by controlling the game, the visitors can create an attack that can end up with a goal. Al Riyadh must maintain their focus and not make any mistakes, because if they do then it is not impossible that Damac can punish them with a goal and make the score even.The last 10 minutes are very vulnerable, as they usually break their focus, which is why I say Al Riyadh must keep their focus high. 10 minutes will be a very long time for Al Riyadh, as they need to keep the score level.

Today there are several quite interesting matches. Al-Ettifaq will host Al Hazm and this is a little difficult to predict because even though Al-Ettifaq is in 9th position while Al Hazm is at the bottom of the points table, Al-Ettifaq has recently experienced a fairly deep decline in performance, even from the last 5 matches they couldn't get a win at all, while Al Hazm from the last 5 matches still got 1 win against Al-Fateh.
This is a bit dangerous because if Al-Ettifaq fails this time against a weak club from the bottom of the points table in the long run Al-Ettifaq will continue to have bad matches.
But Al-Ettifaq is favored by the bookies in this match but I think this will end in a draw because Al Hazm has a bit of a strong defense line.
The next match for Al Riyadh will be against Damac and it is certain that Damac will win this match because Damac has had extraordinary improvements and has surprised many people in the last 5 matches without defeat and maybe against Al Riyadh this will be the next winning streak and the odds very high for Damac @1.58

So CR7 scoring lots of goals in the SPL is not an easy matter. And if there are European players who underestimate this. I think they should come here and see for themselves. Because I think playing in the SPL now is the same as playing in other European leagues. Maybe not as good as the Premier League or Laliga. But I think the SPL will approach that level in the coming years.

The Saudi Pro League we're underrating presently happen to be comparable to the European football. Their pattern is tough and competitive, so we should give Cristiano Ronaldo his flowers because he has earned it in Europe and moving to Asia to complete football is not easy. Cristiano Ronaldo goals stats is unmatchable when compare to other european players that made moves to SPL, Ronaldo is the top goal scorer this season with 53 goals, ab illustrations of the undisputed GOAT in action. In fact, Al Nassr are lucky to have him in the club, he do deliver his team in crumbling moments and have become one of all time best player in SPL in just few months in the Saudi Arabia.Sourch; https://sport.detik.com/
I still laugh every time I see a Ronaldo fan that end up writing how many goals Ronaldo scored. Not like Ligue 1 is a wonderful and very tough league, but Mbappe scored all those goals at both national team, ucl, and league, things that are unlimited amounts harder, Haaland did it at City, a great team but a team that played in fa cup, premier league and UCL, and won it all, they got 5 cups this season, that should tell you something.
Kane did it at tottenham and bayern, teams that play in much harder places. And Ronaldo... dude scored goals in a league that would be like 5th tier in England if they played there, lol. The fact that you think any of those goals mean anything is just fun
dude is just training at this point lol.

Ronaldo's presence itself in the Saudi league is an inspiration for every Saudi youngsters. He's a legendary player and it's a display of respect to give him his penalties to score. He happen to be one of the greatest player of football and has a few records in his name that are hard to be broken. He's also a role model for fitness at his age. Though he might be forgotten when he is not contemporary but he has motivated a huge number of youngster to football and fitness.
Saudi League organizers invested huge investment because they are working on changes in this country with this all and having Ronaldo and many other quality sports persons are surely going to have big impact on youths and other ways of life here because now future is going to be completed different, and we are going to have many changes in this region as well which was war zone and under many other problems for the decades.Hopefully Ronaldo saga will bring good positive changes, and we will have better things in future which could be also good for the sports as they are rich but have not enough structure to groom their players at the best level but now these changes surely going to have improvement and changes as well which are essential for these.
So again Cristiano Ronaldo scoring by two penalties and becoming the top goal scorer of the year, from one side amazing to se him still in the high performance, but in the other hand i can see a ton of memes of him and the penalty love with him.
About the yesterday game was a really good one for Al Nassr, it was not a easy one and they do all to make it look easy.
Its not problem about how come from goals scoring by Cristiano Ronaldo keep make him top scorer in this season and most scoring goals in this season raised to 53 goals. Two penalties goals on last match against Al Ittihad make Ronaldo possibility close in this season become players with scored many goals and he has one match left before 2023 ended. About the yesterday game was a really good one for Al Nassr, it was not a easy one and they do all to make it look easy.
Ronaldo and mitrovic are always competing each other this time. Im feeling so happy to see that how mitrovic will almost surpass ronaldo at this moment. We will be seeing a moment when mitrovic to replace ronaldo's position at the end of season.
Next match, Al Nassr against Al Taawoun and chance for Ronaldo score goals again and help Al Nassr keep close with Al Ahli on the first standings position, on other match Al Ahli not face difficult for tomorrow match against Al Faiha and likely keep 7 points difference on current standings between Al Ahli and Al Nassr.
The chance for al nassr to win the game is very big right now. The lack of strength in Taawoun as a club is the cause behind this, as Ronaldo's addition to Nassr would make it much easier for them to win the game without encountering much of a challenge. the result against ittihad has enough to prove that if ronaldo has ability to do that. Glad to see that ronaldo was making it happen right now. The club is putting in a tremendous amount of effort in order to improve their performance from previous times. It will be cleansheet for al nassr.
Judging by Al-Nassr's impressive results so far, it has also finally placed the duo Ronaldo and Talisca at the top of the list of two attacking players in the top league 23/24. This is because the combination of these two players has managed to contribute 30 goals so far and the number will definitely continue to increase. The duet from other Al-Hilal players, namely Mitrovic and Malcom, is in 4th place with a total goal contribution of 25 goals. I will not exaggerate the results and after all other competitions are also more difficult than the Saudi league, but if we talk about Ronaldo and Talisca's achievements with Al-Nassr, of course it is worth celebrating. I hope that Al-Nassr will continue to maintain these two goal machines and provide them with longer contracts so that they can continue to contribute to the team's victory.
But on the other hand, there are many weaker leagues, but for some reason we don’t hear anything about records from there. For example Scotland where Celtic and Rangers dominate all other decades and the level of their dominance is as great as it can be within one league. It's about specific players. In the end, Ronaldo always scored a lot in every club and championship where he played and either set records or was close to them.
By the way, it’s interesting that in second place is Bayern, which dominates (although not this season still) in the Bendesliga, and in third place very close is a couple from Stuttgart, which is an ordinary club.
It turns out that Ronaldo has one game left this year, and Haaland has two, and these games will decide who of them will be the top scorer among all the leagues. It is clear that goals in the top 5 leagues are counted with a coefficient of 1, and in the rest with a coefficient of 0.5, and Ronaldo (even if Al-Nasr played in Europe) could not qualify for the golden boot, but I am very interested to see the result this rivalry.
There is no need to doubt the two pairs from the two Bundesliga clubs this season because they have carried out major changes to create this attacking duo. But for Stuttgart it was indeed something that exceeded expectations. But despite all that there are no representatives from EPL or La Liga teams and perhaps this is more of a fairly easy league level.
That's right, that will be the last match of the year for Ronaldo and his competition will only be with Haaland. But unfortunately Haaland is currently suffering from an injury and even in last night's match he was not seen on the field. So whether Ronaldo or Haaland's final match this week (Haaland has also recovered from injury) will determine which one of them will win the award for the player with the most goals in 2023.
You may be right is some ways on the ability or recent performance of AI Littihad because from their current standing you will already know that the club have hard a decline position if been compared to what it used to be, but then also we can out rightly write off the impact of the red card on the teams in the last match, because if you have been following up with the match you will see how both clubs struggle all through the first half to protect and guide the goals position, up until the red card came in, and it seems that breaks the camels back and then the flood gate was opens and at the end the where able to add more extra 3 goals making the match to end in a 2:5 goals.
Although AI Nassr is a big name in the pro leagues this season and besting them or even playing a draw game with them means a lot for many clubs in this season.
Saudi League is currently having few things which need to be settled in long run just because of this we can say we will have ups and downs of teams on quick way because they are bringing quality players which need time to adjust and also having some conditions problems as well which are also hurting them but in long run we will have better results and quality which will increase fans interest and few other things as well which are important for the soccer league.Although AI Nassr is a big name in the pro leagues this season and besting them or even playing a draw game with them means a lot for many clubs in this season.
Al Nassr and Al Ittihad both are backed by same company and both are having top quality players but sadly due to some injuries problems and lack of performance suddenly we have Al Ittihad on decline and Al Nassr doing impressive with now setting eyes on title and staying at the second spot with Al Ittihad is defending his title but having problems which need to settle in January transfer window.
So CR7 scoring lots of goals in the SPL is not an easy matter. And if there are European players who underestimate this. I think they should come here and see for themselves. Because I think playing in the SPL now is the same as playing in other European leagues. Maybe not as good as the Premier League or Laliga. But I think the SPL will approach that level in the coming years.

Al Hilal is the best team this year. I don't think Al Nassr can get close to them. It doesn't look like the point gap will close right now. I thought this match would be problematic for Al Nassr, but after Fabinho received a red card, the match went into a more comfortable phase. If you have great forwards like Mane, Ronaldo, Talisca, your job becomes easier.
Sure, Al Hilal looks very strong this season, they are undefeated so far. However, it doesn't mean that Al Hilal has no chance to get loses in the next matches. I assume there should be time that Al Hilal may lose their focus or some of their key player get injured. So, Al Nassr is very possible to shorten the point gap in the future. The match against Al Ittihad, is a crucial match, too. Al Nassr did their best, they defeated Al Ittihad with 5 goals. Trio monsters of Al Nassr (Ronaldo, Mane, and Talisca) showed their great contribution. Al Nassr succeed to shorten the point gap to be 7 points.For now, Al Hilal is still undefeated, but if Al Hilal starts to experience its first defeat and so on, Al Nassr will continue to get closer to Al Hilal, with that Al Nassr will be ready to compete with Al Hilal for the SPL title, but if Al Nassr is consistent without losing.
So CR7 scoring lots of goals in the SPL is not an easy matter. And if there are European players who underestimate this. I think they should come here and see for themselves.

Cristiano was able to score 19 goals in 17 matches this season because the defenders he faced were not as good as the defense lines in European leagues, so it was easy for Cristiano Ronaldo to continue adding goals in every match he played in the remainder of the 2023/2024 season. What do you think if someone assumes something like that?
According to many sources, the popularity of the Saudi Pro League has increased drastically because of Cristiano Ronaldo and a number of players who have played in big leagues in Europe. Increasing SPL broadcasting rights based on data is a guide to justify this.
One point that is unpleasant to hear is that the SPL can still be determined which team will be champion at the end of the season. This rumor was clarified when Al Nassr lost 3-0 against Al Ahli in round 15.
Al Feiha vs Al Hilal
Al Hilal was very strong this season and they were very often to win with big scores at Saudi Pro League and it proven from their statistics during this season that Al Hilal has total 57 goals and only conceded 9 goals and from 5 recent matches Al Hilal has scores 23 goals and gets 4 cleansheet so it's clearly they have good balanced to attack and defense and about their opponent Al feiha this team is not in the good shape because from 6 matches at Saudi Pro League they only get 1 win
Last season Al-hilal may have had a little difficulty when facing Al-feiha. But this season Al-hilal will most likely win easily, even with a fairly big score. Having the position of host will also not be very helpful for Al-Feiha. Because currently there is a very big difference in the quality of play between Al-Hilal and other teams in the SPL. Even Al-ittihad and Al-Nassr also had difficulties when facing Al-hilal. So we cannot have high hopes for ordinary clubs whose squad depth is not even as strong as the clubs currently in the top 7.Al Hilal was very strong this season and they were very often to win with big scores at Saudi Pro League and it proven from their statistics during this season that Al Hilal has total 57 goals and only conceded 9 goals and from 5 recent matches Al Hilal has scores 23 goals and gets 4 cleansheet so it's clearly they have good balanced to attack and defense and about their opponent Al feiha this team is not in the good shape because from 6 matches at Saudi Pro League they only get 1 win
But it would be very boring but also extraordinary for Al-hilal if they really didn't lose until the season ended. This will definitely be a hard blow for other clubs in the SPL. But it will also make other clubs fight harder next season. We don't know where Al-hilal will end up with the luck and quality of play it has now.
Al Ittihad which is defending champions and having very good start of this season suddenly going down badly with this was 5th defeat for them in last 10 games things are getting the worst day by day Karim Benzema and company having serious problems to bring back their form now Fabiano is also red carded, and they already conceded 11 goals in their last three games which are clearly giving all details about things are going and if they are not going to have changes into winter transfer window then surely they could be in more trouble difference of points from third spotted Al Ahli is 9 points which is looking huge with this current form.
Al Nassr and Al Hilal both are set for the staying at the top without any challenge, and we can't expect anything less than title for the Al Hial which is really at the top and Al Nassr is now also doing their best, but they are now had to wait for some poor performance from Al Hilal which is not looking into this season.
In the recent match they lots against Al-Nassr, they had the advantage of their home ground but couldn't stand a chance cause they kept making lots of errors defensively and Nassr used it to their advantage, Al ittihad needs to sit up and work together as a team else they'll keep dropping points, I doubt if they'll be able to defend the title anymore, currently the race is now between Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal who are the strongest in the league this season.
We are talking about Ronaldo, who is playing in a league that is worse than league one level, definitely worse than championship level, I am not expecting that league to be premier league, nor even championship, but league one is barely there, maybe even league two, which is fourth tier of english football. Thats the league he is playing, and its obvious that he would not be playing around, he is a serious character as well. One thing I can congratulate him on is many players that went to SA ended up just not caring, they are just collecting their paycheck and resting and not caring, living their retirement already, Ronaldo didn't do that, he actually plays his best without a doubt. However, he could have scored 100 goals and I wouldn't still count them as anything.
Saying the Saudi League is worst than the league 2 is not entirely true. What are your basis for saying the league one or two are better? Don't overrate the English leagues please. Players from the premier league which is the first division of English football are going to the Saudi League, so how do explain to somebody who doesn't know football too well that the 4th division is higer than the Saudi league?
There are things to classify a better league,
Quality of football
Quality of competition
The ROI for the players, clubs, league and investors.
The quality of players in the league.
Ronaldo will never play in the championship, but he's gladly playing in Saudi.
The number of goals he score may not matter to you but it matters to his total career goals.
So CR7 scoring lots of goals in the SPL is not an easy matter. And if there are European players who underestimate this. I think they should come here and see for themselves. Because I think playing in the SPL now is the same as playing in other European leagues. Maybe not as good as the Premier League or Laliga. But I think the SPL will approach that level in the coming years.

If we see from head to head statistics indeed both teams can able to beat each other but this season is totally different because Al Hilal was unstoppable at Saudi Pro League and seems this could be easy match for them and Al Hilal will still rely on Aleksandar Mitrovic for the front lines and this season Aleksandar Mitrovic was being an successful transfer for Al Hilal because this player currently as Al Hilal top scorer however about this match i am sure Al Hilal will beat Al Feiha but the odds for Al Hilal was quite low @1.17 but i think other option just like over 2.5 goals will be good pick instead of Al Hilal win which have low odds
