Al Ahli vs Al Hilal Match Analysis & Prediction
06/05/2024 9:00 pm
Al Hilal will be looking to open up a 12-point lead at the top of the Saudi Pro League when they travel to King Abdullah Sports City to face Al Ahli on Monday.
Al Ahli secured three huge points in their quest for a top-three finish as they overcame 10-man Damac 4-1 at the Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Stadium last Thursday.
In a game where Farouk Chafai received his marching orders, the hosts scored four goals in the opening 25 minutes through Ziyad Aljohani, Firas Al-Buraikan, Riyad Mahrez and Roberto Firmino, before Domagoj Antolic pulled one back in the 62nd minute.
With their win on Thursday, Matthias Jaissle’s side have now gone unbeaten in seven of their last eight home matches, securing four wins and three draws since the start of November.
Meanwhile, Al Hilal turned in another performance of the highest quality as they cruised to a 3-0 victory over Al-Taawoun at the King Abdullah Sport City Stadium on Friday.
In a one-sided affair, the visitors were no match for the Wolves as former Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic opened the scoring in the 49th minute, before Saud Abdulhamid and Saleh Al-Shehri scored second-half goals to cap off a solid team performance.
Jorge Jesus’ side have now won each of their last four matches across all competitions – scoring 10 goals and conceding three – a run which has seen them reach the King’s Cup final following their 2-1 win at Al Ittihad on April 30.
With just five games left to play, Al Hilal currently lead the way at the top of the league table with 83 points from 29 matches, nine points above second-placed Al Nassr.

In the previous 50 meetings between these two teams, Al Ahli have claimed 11 victories while Al Hilal have won 27, and they have drawn in 12. Al Hilal have scored 88 goals and conceded 60 in the process.

Al Ahli Team News
Ziyad Aljohani was forced off injured midway through the game against Damac last time out and the 22-year-old is a doubt for this match.
Should he fail to shake off his injury, 27-year-old Ali Al-Asmari should come into the fold, teaming up with Franck Kessie at the centre of the park.

Al Hilal Team News
With his striker against Al-Taawoun, Mitrovic now has 23 goals in what has been a stellar debut campaign in the Saudi League and the Serbian striker is expected to spearhead Al Hilal’s attack once again.
He should be joined in the final third by Nasser A-Dawsari and Brazilian forward Michael, while Ruben Neves and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic should form the two-man midfield anchor once again.
