Before Betting

All eyes will be on the top of the Saudi Pro League this weekend, as the top two collide. Al-Hilal will have home field advantage on Saturday, as they chase a fourth straight victory to maintain their 100% record.

The Saudi club were crowned champions last term, and they have made an impressive start to the current season. Aleksandar Mitrovic has already started the season in strong form after netting six times in the competition so far.

Al-Hilal’s excellent run of form continued in the AFC Champions League on Tuesday after securing a 3-1 win on the road against Al Rayyan. Joao Cancelo was among the scorers in that success.

However, it is Al-Ittihad that leads the way in the Saudi Pro League standings at this early stage. Karim Benzema has been their star man to this point.

The former Real Madrid star was in stunning form last weekend after netting an excellent hat-trick in a 7-1 demolition against Al-Wehda. Houssem Aouar also netted in that dominant win in front of their home fans.

However, this weekend presents them with their first big challenge of the new season. A victory will see Al-Ittihad emerge as serious Saudi Pro League title contenders in 2024-25.

Al-Hilal vs. Al-Ittihad Prediction

The home side look to have everything in their favor this weekend. Al-Hilal have been consistent across the last two seasons, and the fact that they have home advantage will make them the main play when making a prediction.

Mitrovic could be the standout player, as he could add to his six goals already registered this term.
