Al-Hilal are hoping to win again after their last result, a 4-0 AFC Champions League Elite triumph against Al-Shorta.
For Al-Hilal, the goals were scored by Leonardo (45', 72'), Sergej Milinković-Savić (63') and Cancelo (90').
Their latest results really do illustrate the point that much solidity has been shown by the Al-Hilal defence. Al-Hilal have given the opposition little, with the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their last 6 outings standing at 4.
Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Al-Nassr in Professional League competition, Al-Khaleej will be aiming to make amends here.
In that match, Al-Khaleej had 45% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target. Al-Nassr had 21 attempts on goal with 10 on target. Félix (39'), Wesley (42'), Sadio Mané (77') and Ronaldo (90') scored for Al-Nassr.
Looking at their form, and Al-Khaleej have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 12 goals overall. Defensively, Al-Khaleej have not been doing too well. However, we must now wait to see whether the trend will persist in this upcoming game.
The last league game between the two was Professional League match day 28 on 17/04/2025 which ended up with the score at Al-Hilal 3-0 Al-Khaleej.
In that match, Al-Hilal had 59% possession and 24 shots on goal with 9 of them on target. The scorers were Salem Al Dawsari (26', 84') and Aleksandar Mitrović (88').
For their opponents, Al-Khaleej got 10 attempts at goal with 2 on target.
It looks to us that Al-Hilal are likely to get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.
At the other end, Al-Khaleej are also probably going to find it difficult to make a breakthrough but we do fancy them hitting back at some stage here, too.
Accordingly, we see a fairly comfortable 3-1 win for Al-Hilal at the end of the 90 minutes.
