Al-Hilal

"The Leaders" are having a remarkably strong season, securing a substantial lead in the Arabian Pro League. In the 22 matches played, Georges Jesus's team has only dropped points in two encounters, drawing with Damac away (1-1) and Al-Fayha at home (1-1). With a staggering 18-point lead over Al-Taawon, who sits in fourth place, there is no doubt that "The Leaders" will continue their journey in the Champions League. In the previous stage, Al-Hilal confidently dealt with Sepahan in the Champions League, winning 6-2 on aggregate. Now they face a familiar opponent in Al-Ittihad, whom "The Leaders" defeated in the league just last Friday with a score of 3-1.

Al-Ittihad

Marcelo Gallardo's team also had no issues in the first round of the AFC Champions League playoffs. Al-Ittihad secured victory over Navbahor on aggregate. Meanwhile, in the Saudi Arabian league, "The Tigers" faced some setbacks last autumn, leading to their drop from the top spot to the sixth position. Only after the league hiatus did Al-Ittihad's results stabilize, allowing them to improve their standings. Marcelo Gallardo's side had a great opportunity to close in on the top three; however, they couldn't resist Al-Hilal in the last round, losing away 1-3. This defeat halted "The Tigers'" winning streak in the Pro League, which consisted of three matches. Currently, Al-Ittihad occupies the fifth position in the league table, with 37 points from 22 matches.
