Al Hilal is starting a campaign to defend his last season title after a fierce competition with Al Ittihad in search of a fourth title in a row.
Al-Hilal will be a heavy guest in Rising Bay on Thursday at Dammam’s Prince Mohammed bin Fahd Stadium and is in a state of technical and elemental stability despite a penalty imposed on him preventing him from registering for two periods.
Al Hilal prepared for the new season by extending the contract of their Argentine manager Ramon Diaz and then camping in England where he won four friendly matches.
He misses Mohammed Knoh due to a 4-month suspension in early May, Abdelila Al-Maliki and Saleh Al-Shehri due to unpreparedness, and Korean Jang Hyun-soo and Brazilian Michel Delgado due to injuries while participating Salman Al-Faraj and Yasser Al-Shahrani have not been confirmed.
Al Hilal are counting on Nigerian Odion Ighalo, the league’s top scorer last season (24), Salem Al Dosari, Brazilian Mateos Pereira, Peruvian Andre Carrillo, Colombian Gustavo Cuellar and Argentinean Luciano Vieto, who returned after a short loan to the youth.

Al-Khalij, who have set up camp in Turkey, signed the Portuguese Pedro Emmanuel, former coach of Al-Taawun and Al-Nasr, and also attracted 16 players, including 7 foreigners, most notably Algerian Jamal Belamri , Brazilian Lucas Souza and Gabonese Andre. Boko.
Faiha x Damak
At seven and five minutes, Al Faiha and Damk teams cut the league match tape at the Al Majmaa Sports City Stadium in a very close match between them, and the opening matches are usually monotonous and feel the pulse of the teams.
Both teams have completed all their preparations for the league, and each is looking to start early at the expense of the other.
Al Fayhaa, under his Serbian coach Vuk Razovic, organized an open camp in Austria and played a series of test matches, while his guest Dhamk also organized a camp in Slovenia under coach Kresimir Rezic, which was updated with him after his good results with the team last season.
