Al Ahli have the chance to make a statement win when they host Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday. The hosts go into the weekend placed eighth while the champions top the standings. Let’s have a look at a preview and prediction of the match.
It hasn’t been a dream start to the season for Al Ahli. After five matches, they have two wins, having already suffered two defeats. They find themselves eight points adrift of the league leaders.
A 2-0 win in the Champions League offered Al Ahli the needed break after losing their previous two domestic matches. One of those was a 1-0 defeat at Al-Qadsiah in their most recent league match.
The hosts will be banking on a four-match winning run at home in the league.
Al Hilal have swept away all their opponents in a perfect start to their title defence. Five wins in five league matches have them coming into this game as favorites.
Their home game in the Champions League ended in a resounding 5-0 win against Al Shorta. That marked their second clean sheet in three matches. They don’t have many of them, keeping just four in their 10 matches this season.
However, when it comes to attack, Al Hilal are among the most efficient. They scored less than two in just two of 10 matches this season. In the league they have the second most goals after five rounds.
