I feel happy because Al-Nassr can now win the match against Al-ETtifaq with a score of 3-1. I saw Al Nassr playing very enthusiastically and actually there were many opportunities that failed to be utilized properly, such as the Mane in the 14th minute. If you can score goals, of course the score produced by Al Nassr will be even higher, but of course Luis Castro has succeeded in making a good strategy and of course Al Nassr's points are increasing and are still in 2nd place. Al Nassr, which has 40 points, of course must further improve its performance. so that can win this season because now Al Hilal has more and more points, namely 50 points.

Cristiano Ronaldo's appearance is always eagerly awaited and I saw that Cristiano Ronaldo really enjoyed this match. Unfortunately, Mane was unlucky because he failed to score a goal, but of course Cristiano Ronaldo scored and goalkeeper Al-ETtifaq couldn't catch the ball that Cristiano Ronaldo kicked because his shot was very fast. Alex Telles and Brozovic were outstanding in this match and they looked very easy to put the ball into Al-ettifaq's goal.

Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr are still competing for the championship this season and of course Al Nassr and Al Hilal are still the strongest teams in the Saudi Arabian league.

10 points difference is not the real result because Al-Nassr still has one match to play, if Al-Nassr wins then the difference in points is 7 and that can still be pursued even though the chances are low Al-Nassr has just won the 17th match today and Ronaldo scored one goal, Ronaldo again took over the top score list after previously Aleksandar Mitrović was there. Al-Nassr has no choice if they still want to compete with Al-Hilal they have to win all the remaining matches, or hope that Al-Hilal will lose in the next 5-6 matches, this one is impossible The fact is Al-Hilal is the most consistent team in Saudi Pro League, maybe Al-Hilal can lose if their mainstay players are injured like Aleksandar Mitrović in attack, Yassine Bounou on the goalkeeper and some defenders well, only in this way Al-Hilal can be defeated.

Next week al-Nassr will come to Al-Ittihad we know Al-Nassr is still with the same mission 3 points from each match it's just not easy to beat Al-Ittihad when playing at home but al-Nassr will try to all their abilities. This match is worth waiting for and I have prepared interesting bets over 3.5 goals and both teams to score Yes, in addition to the struggle for points this match is also related to prestige because in previous seasons the two teams were rivals of course there is a mission that must be completed.

Currently, we have Al Hilal as all in there is no team which can challenge them for the top spot, but today we have all favorite as winner which bring things clear even defending champions are at the sixth, but they can jump above with having two matches in hand, but now their chances for the top three are going down because their performance is not good as they needed after having title in last season.
Al Nassr is doing good job, but no difference is surely increasing pressure on them, and they are having not enough chances as well for cutting this all but Cristiano Ronaldo is doing impressive job as he is scoring goals in every game now after today match his tally increased from 16 to 17 now Metrovic needs to do hard work for having top spot in goalscorers list.

Al Hilal is leading the League’s standings with 10 points beyond the second place which is Al Nasr, and they are winning with heavy results that reminds us of old Barcelona and Real Madrid in LaLiga, in a way they win against the team of that league because of the big level difference. Last match of Al Hilal against Abha we saw 7 clean goals with a full domination. Is it a sign that Al Hilal will win the SPL cup this season or another team will change everything ( very hard ).
Al Nasr have a late match to reduce the gap from 10 to 7 points between them and Al Hilal. However, Ronaldo is still scoring and keeping himself as the best scorer and most assists, it’s something that nobody excepted before the start of the season, knowing that his performance with Manchester United before joining Al Nasr was the worst in his career.

I cannot find any casino that has bets for the winner of SPL title, I want to make a bet for Al Hilal if the odds are good. If anyone has a good sportbook, it’s good to share it with us.

Betting on these teams is actually amazing, but the bookmakers are not given much odd for these teams because they are certain that these team will win their respective matches which is why they are placing small odds on them; nevertheless, it is still amazing to bet on them to play over 2.5 since they are scoring enough goals in their matches, so instead of given them straight win, over 2.5 will bring a better odd.


Al Nassr is trying their best, but they have lose some points that has made Al Hilal gave them enough points gap that will be difficult for them to recover because Al Hilal's performance this season is very commendable because they have consistency and they are yet to lose any match in the Saudi Pro League. They are the favorites to win the league this season.

Al Ittihad could win the title last season because they played more solidly. The squad of other teams were also not as strong as this season. Al Nassr has Ronaldo, but there were no other top European players. And we must know that Ronaldo didn't join the last season since the early season. He joined SPL when it was already in the second half of the season. Al Hilal also still has no their top European players in the last season. So, there are already many changes in this season. The squad of Al Hilal, Al Nassr, and Al Ahli are better than the squad of Al Ittihad for this season.

Yes. The new players in Al Ittihad and old players can play solidly. They have a problem in the teamwork, they also sometimes have a problem with their tactics and players' mentality. So, there are some problems with Al Ittihad players, that's why they look difficulty to improve their performance. I think Al Ittihad needs to change their coach, they need a coach who understand more the players of Al Ittihad.

Yes but there is a big problem with their policy. We all were discussing here whether they can become a threat to the European leagues and how much these players will improve the league and how attractive the game in Saudi Arabia will become. But Ronaldo is the only one is doing ok. He isn't even world class anymore and his body language says it all. He was focused so hard during the games with such a high body tension, but when you watch an Al-Nassr game you can see that a lot of the energy is gone. He has his moments because he is the best on the field, but it's not like it used to be. Benzema isn't in the media anymore, he literally disappeared. Neymar is injured all the time and now what is the conlcusion? I think that their model is in no way sustainable and it was fun to see that they did it, but simultaneously it wasn't much more than a fun experiment for a short period of time. The SPL lacks a ton of things to become serious competition for European leagues.

Betting on Al-hilal, Al-Ahli and Al-Nassr is truly amazing. All three managed to beat their respective opponents with extraordinary scores. Especially Al-hilal who managed to score 7 goals against Abha. But Al-Nassr also played extraordinary. Al-ETtifaq, which I initially thought would provide strong resistance to Al-Nassr, turned out not to be the case. Al-Nassr was able to control the match quite comfortably. Meanwhile, Al-Ahli also defeated Al-Hazm without any significant difficulties.

The difference in points between Al-Ahli and Al-Nassr is very close. But the difference in points between Al-Nassr and Al-hilal is really very different, with a difference of 10 points. Luckily Al-Nassr has 1 match postponed which they can use to get 3 points. But unfortunately the postponed match is against Al-ittihad so it will be very difficult for Al-Nassr to get 3 points in that match. And I'm still waiting to see which team can finally make Al-hilal lose. Because Al-hilal's unbeaten record is truly frightening at the moment. Because they are getting superior in every match they play. I started to doubt whether anyone would be able to beat them.

Actually, when Al Ittihad won the Saudi Super League trophy last season, the squad was not as luxurious as it is now. In fact, last season Al Nassr had Ronaldo but still, Al Ittihad managed to become the title winner but this season strangely, at this moment Al Ittihad experienced a decline which might be quite bad because of the luxurious squad it has at the moment.

Perhaps, due to the presence of senior and star players like Benzema and a few others, Al Ittihad is overly dependent on its star players. Thus, their performance does not work well because they only rely on a few players, and do not play as a team. In fact, at the beginning of this season Al Ittihad still looks fine, but as the season progresses the reality is that Al Ittihad has decreased performance and poor results obtained.

Al Hilal during this season was super powerful and even after more players they got in Al Nassr but Al Hilal is having more and better results during this season.
We know Abha is not a strong team to stand against Al Hial but winning the game with a 7-0 is a lot for any team and Al Hilal did it against Abha. They won the game with a 7-0 result while their Serbian player Sergej Milinković-Savić scored three goals in this match and a perfect performance against Abha.

Al Ittihad are still standing strong on top of the league. Getting the goals and also defending so well preventing opponents from scoring, I think they’ll be giving Al Nassr quite some headache to try and get the league or come close to top spot. One sweet thing for the fans is the addition of Lukaku to Mitrovic who’s already banging goals, Mehn this team is so going to be very strong upfront if it happens.

 Lukaku added to that team means a seal on their top spot position as he’s one prolific striker that’s sure of getting you maximum goals season in and out. The team has done well and we must now see them as ones that could be crowned Champions, based on their consistent performance since the beginning of the season, their only major treat is Al-Nassr who are hell bent on closing the gap between both teams.

That's the thing about Al-Hilal, they are way above this leagues talent level and they are aware of it as well, that's the whole thing they got going on. I mean this league is nothing to them right now, but that's this year, lets see if they can keep this up next season as well.

This league has so much money going on, I am not sure if the teams will continue to be this good for a long time, feels like there is a possibility that it could be this good or maybe it won't be this good, it's an unknown in the end. I believe that we are going to end up with something that should change much and that's why I believe that we are going to see this summer a ton of transfers by a lot of teams again to get that title next season.

Even though the Arabs have a lot of money to buy any player, I have not yet seen any reliable source reporting that Lukaku is interested in going to play in Saudi Arabia, Lukaku is 30 years old, still very young and a great player who stands out a lot, in the past he made some mistakes when choosing teams, chelsea and inter and that caused him to fall a lot, if he had stayed at inter he would have made a better choice, but he constantly wanted to change teams. Looking at this past, I highly doubt that he hasn't learned that lesson, which is why in my opinion I doubt that he will go to the Arab League knowing that making that move will close any door for a comeback.

for some big team in Europe, he knows that and his agents know that, so the best option for Lukako will be to stay in Roma until he has a better offer from some big team in Europe, at least that would be wiser at that moment given that he is 30 years old and the Saudi clubs have signed millionaire contracts for 3 seasons only, which means that after 3 years the Arabs will renegotiate the value of the contract for a less valuable contract, the Arabs do not have infinite money to continue spending a lot of money in the long term, after ronaldo retires, I highly doubt this league will continue to be popular and get a lot of attention

the truth is that ronaldo is the main reason why many players are accepting these proposals now, because they know that when ronaldo leaves everything will also be over, the millionaire contracts will be over, all this attention that this league is currently getting will be gone finish. That's why many players are taking advantage now, but this only benefits 33-year-old players who no longer have many chances of being able to play in a big team, in the case of players like Lukako who is 30 years old and with a lot of talent, It would be very advantageous to go to the Arab League, unless the money for him was bigger than his dream and career.

currently the advantage that Al Hilal has over Al - Nassr is 10 points, Al - Nassr needs to win in their next game for this advantage to be reduced to 7 points, but even if it were reduced, one thing is clear for me: Al Hilal are already champions this season, I highly doubt they would lose many games to the point where Al - Nassr would be able to catch up to them. once again ronaldo will not be champion, maybe he will retire without a relevant title in this league

Very satisfied to see Al Nassr performance in today's match and I was impressed to see that Alex Telles long range shot was very precise and the shot was so fast that the Al-Ettifaq goalkeeper was unable to parry it and even though Al Nassr won, I was a little dissatisfied with Ronaldo performance because of several This time Mane tried to give Ronaldo a chance but was never able to kick the ball on target and I thought that Ronaldo lacked focus and was too hasty when shooting the ball so he couldn't hit the target.
If we talk about the score competition between Ronaldo and Mitrovic, it seems that Ronaldo far superior because we can see that Ronaldo performance and his skills are very good, even though the difference 1 score, but the assists that Ronaldo has are also superior to Mitrovic and this indicates that Ronaldo a very good player and also think about the career of other players so as to also provide other players to score.

It looks like Al Nassr will only occupy second place in points table this season because the difference in points very large and it  impossible to expect Al Hilal to lose its consistency and lose while Al Hilal performance is very strong.

Yep. Al Nassr finished the match with 3 goals, they got 3 important points. 1 goal was in the first half, 2 goals were in the second half of the match. Once again, Ronaldo scored a goal to add his total goals in SPL this season. He is competing for the top scorer status with Mitrovic. Ronaldo scored 17 goals, Mitrovic scored 16 goals. This will be a tight competition between Ronaldo and Mitrovic.

On the other hand, Al Nassr also competes with Al Hilal for the title of SPL this season. But it is very unfortunate that the point gap is large, I doubt if Al Nassr can overtake Al Hilal in the first place. It is not about the stats, it is about the probability to overtake Al Hilal.

I have said before that Ittihad actually only needs to find a partner for Benzema who can support him to score in every match and make a very good contribution and I believe that Benzema can actually still appear strong with his talent like Ronaldo, it's just that Benzema doesn't get full support from him other players such as Ronaldo are supported by Mane and Talisca.
maybe some people won't believe what I say but I say it like this for the reason that if every Ittihad match I see less solid players and I should let Benzema be a scoring machine to be able to bring Ittihad with a big enough score but in fact I often see the team did not appear solid.

and on the one hand, this is related to the coach because the coach is also a strong factor in determining the future of the team, even though the team has very good players, but if the coach does not have a lot of experience, the strategy used will certainly not be able to help the team rise to the next level.

Al-Nassr won 3:1 against Al-Ettifaq today, almost all the goals were scored in the second half. Cristiano Ronaldo also scored one from with penalty. This puts them in 2nd place in the Sausi Professional League, 10 points behind... and have played one game less. First place still belongs to Al-Hilal, who have won 10 games in the series, including one against Al-Nassr. If they hadnt won that one, the two teams might only be 1 point apart. It looks like Al-Hilal will win this season. If you look at the last 7 years, they have won the championship 5 times and Al-Nassr once.

In every league in the world there must be a team that really stands out compared to other teams and the same is the case with the current Saudi Arabian league which is dominated by Al Hilal, Al Nassr and also Al Ahli, I think the comparison between one team and another team is more dominant in terms of the clubs finances and also the wealth of its owners so we cannot blame the league operator if there is inequality between one team and another team,  especially now the Saudi league is now starting to move in the right direction and the league operator no longer limits clubs from recruiting any players in the world, In fact, now apart from the Chinese and American leagues, European players who really have a strong magnet for football are starting to move to the Arab league and of course this will make the Arab league eventually become a league that is on par with the European league and but this will take time according to me.

In every league, there will always be weak and strong teams. The strong teams will dominate the league until the weak ones fortify their teams to compete with the bigger clubs. The same thing happens in all the top leagues in the world. However, the SPL is still developing and most of these bottom-placed clubs are not well-financed because the government is currently focusing on few clubs. And these clubs that have the largest funds to sign quality players which has made them to keep winning games. Maybe by next season, the Saudi government might extend its financial grants or subvention to other clubs.

It feels unreal that Al-Hilal can repeat their big win this season and this time the victim is Abha. Playing at home made Al-Hilal very loose and they did not show any mercy to their opponents. They scored a total of 7 goals against Abha and that is a very large number of goals in one match. Al-Hilal recently did the same thing and Al-Hazm also experienced conceding a lot of goals last month with 9 goals against them.

I think that even for a weak team in the Saudi league, Abha or Al-Hazem should not have had similar results and so many goals have gone into their net and yes, Al-Hilal is a team containing monsters and quite a few teams have become their victims. Al-Hilal are on a different level in the Saudi league and maybe if they can win with scores like this over a long period of time, it is not impossible that they will win the Saudi league title.
