Al-Hilal stands 90 minutes away from being crowned Saudi League title for the 19th time in its history, when he hosts al-hazm on the final day of the 31st round at Prince Faisal bin Fahd Sports City Stadium, Mills.
Al-Hilal needs only one point to claim the title, which means that his draw against Al-Assad will officially declare that he won the tournament three rounds before the end of the tournament. Al-Hilal, led by Portugal’s Jorge Jesus, is seeking to set more records by picking up a lot of points at the end of the current edition of the league.
The Capitalist Blue currently has 86 points at the top of the table, is nine points clear of nearest rivals Al-Nasr before this match, and will work to win the remaining four games in order to reach the 98th point, in an unprecedented record over the history of the Saudi League.
The al-hilal has not suffered any loss to date; He managed to win 28 games against two draws, and is on course to embrace the league title without losing if he can sustain it in the remaining four rounds, where he will face the al-hazm, then victory, after the fold, and finally meet the unit.
Al-Azraq comes into high spirits after overtaking Al-Ahly in a difficult match, and looks forward to repeating his advantage over his guest after raining a back-to-back 9-0.
Team al-hilal manager Jesus is trying to rest some elements of his team, especially as the al-hilal has secured the title significantly, and is awaiting a strong match against traditional rivals Al-Nasr in the next round.
The al-hazm are in need of a miracle in order to ensure survival even if they achieve a positive result against Al-Hilal in the Malaz match, but their loss will bring them to the top flight as the first relegation teams of the season.
The last-place al-hazm are in the league ranking table with 20 points, with positive results in the recent period in which Saleh Al-Mohammadi attended the team’s technical management, succeeding the Uruguayan Daniel Carreño, but these results have not yet served the team in the task of survival.
In another match in Riyadh, al-shabab host their civil counterparts at an exciting competitive summit between the two teams; The landlord is threatening the aspirations of the community seeking to tighten its grip on third place in the ranking list, following the young people’s winning streak in his recent games.
Portuguese al-shabab coach Vitor Pereira aspires to score victory over his former team “Al Ahly”, and the youth are currently in sixth place before the start of the Tour, which means that he can start in this position after Al Fayha is tied against Al Fahah in the same round and reach point 42 against the chance of the al-shabab to increase his balance to point 44 if Al Ahliya exceeds.
al-shabab are unaware of the loss in their last five games; He scored the victory in four games for a single draw against Al Tai, and aspires not to break this series against Al Ahly.
Al Ahli, led by Mathias Yasselh, is looking forward to a positive result following the stumbling against Al-Hilal in the last round. His balance of 55 points was frozen in third place on the table. With the stalking cooperation his most prominent in this round, victory for Ahli will be of great importance to tighten his grip on third place.
