The Saudi Roshn Professional League will be suspended until February 15, with the exception of the postponed match between Al Tai and the al-itthad, due to the holding of the Asian Cup in Qatar with the participation of Lakhdar.
The first half saw Al-Hilal take the lead, the defending champion dropped the itthad Jeddah to seventh place, and the fierceness of competition to avoid relegation to the saudi Yello League.
The pause represents a rescue opportunity for teams experiencing technical and planning crises, challenging others to go well.
Largest beneficiaries
Breathtaking locally, to relieve considerable pressure and constant criticism towards Argentine al-itthad coach Jayardo’s comrades, comes after recent results.
Dean played 18 league games, winning 8 of them and drawing 4 times, conceding 6 defeats, scoring 34 goals, including 5 penalties, conceding 26 goals.
Averaging 1.9 goals per game, the team failed to score a single goal from a set-piece despite averaging 10.4 kicks per game,
an average of 3.2 dangerous attacking attempts per game, and an average of 56.7% possession.
The defence and goalkeeper came out with clean sheets in 6 confrontations only, with some 11.4 fouls committed with each game.
The Argentine coach will have to address the planning problems that have arisen on the front and back lines in order to avoid losing a new leap in the second half of the saudi league due to the team’s current situation with 28 points.
Top Losers
The al-hilal lives in a distinct state of technical harmony, planning discipline and effectiveness on goal, to settle matches early regardless of the competitor’s strength.
The “leader” has a positive run of results, most notably the 3-0 victory, 9-0 firmness, and in front of Abha heptathlon, to move away from the top of the table by 7 points from his closest pursuit.
Al-hilal coach Jesus’ task will be difficult to maintain a state of brilliance and technical readiness long after the loss of his international stars and the absence of official confrontations.
Overall, the team scored 59 goals in 19 games, with a rate of 3.1, a 62.2% acquisition ratio, and a pass accuracy of 87.9%, with a clean sheet in 12 confrontations, and only 9 receptions during the saudi league.
Winning Series
The status of al-nassr is not so different, from its rival al-hilal, the world has reached a distinct line harmony, especially on the offensive side between the trio of Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane and Taliska.
The team scored 55 goals at a rate of 2.9 per game, conceding 23, 62.5% possession, 89.6% pass accuracy and 11.9 fouls per game.
Portuguese manager Luis Castro seeks to continue the planning development and exploit the second half of the tournament to make up a difference of 7 points with the al-hilal.
Trying to find Firmino
The variation in performance from time to time is the most significant crisis facing German head coach Mathias Yassel, with his team in the current season.
The team returning from the Yellow League with great ambitions to compensate its fans, using the deals of front-row stars such as Firmino, Riyadh Mahrez, Mindy and Casey, is third with 40 points.
Yasele has not presented the front-line stars in a form that reflects their technical abilities to date, especially Firmino, who has only recorded a hat-trick in his debut.
The team scored 41 goals at a rate of 2.2, conceding 19 goals, with a 55.1% acquisition rate and a pass accuracy of 86.2%.
Wait for the rescuer
The al-shabab Department is intensifying its negotiations to sign a new technical director, restoring the team’s glamour, and continuing to climb towards the middle and front of the table.
The Liuth finished 11th with 21 points and scored only 19 goals, entered 25, and reached a 57.4% acquisition ratio.
