Al-Hilal will host Al-Wehda at the Kingdom Arena on Tuesday in another round of the 2024-25 Saudi Professional League campaign. The home side have performed brilliantly this season and remain locked in a tight battle with Al-Ittihad as they look to retain the league title for another season.
They carried out a 9-0 drubbing of Al-Fateh in their last match, with six different players getting on the scoresheet including Marcos Leonardo who netted a superb hat-trick to help the champions equal their biggest-ever win.
Al-Wehda, meanwhile, have failed to perform all season, prompting the dismissal of head coach Josef Zinnbauer as the Fursan Mecca attempt to exit the drop zone. They were beaten 3-0 by newly-promoted but star-studded Al-Qadsiah in their game on Friday and were perhaps fortunate not to have lost by an even larger margin in a thoroughly disappointing display on home turf.
Trending
The visitors sit 17th in the league table with just 12 points picked up all season. They will head to the home of the champions and league leaders this week desperate to put out a statement performance.
