Al-Ahli

The "Fortress of Trophies" is competing for a spot in the AFC Champions League, but nothing more. Dreaming of the championship seems futile, as they already lag behind Al-Hilal by 16 points. Overcoming such a gap will be exceedingly challenging. More importantly for Matthias Jaissle's team is maintaining the third spot in the Pro League, which secures participation in the Asian Champions League. In this regard, the situation currently favors the "Fortress of Trophies," leading their closest rival, Al-Taawoun, by four points. In their last match, Al-Ahli confidently dealt with Al-Taawoun away with a 4-1 victory.

Al-Fateh

Under Slaven Bilic's leadership, the team isn't involved in the race for AFC Champions League participation. Currently, Al-Fateh occupies the seventh position in the Saudi Pro League table. With 30 points from 21 matches, they trail the top three by a significant 13 points. In the previous round, Al-Fateh played a 1-1 draw against Damac, extending their winless streak to three matches. Away from home, Al-Fateh has won only five out of 10 matches, with two draws and three losses.
