Futbol Mundial brings you the best coverage ahead of the Arab Club Champions Cup between the two Saudi rivals.
Clash of the Arab titans
Al-Hilal go into this clash as favorites against their bitter rivals ahead of the Riyadh Derby on Saturday afternoon. Al Za’eem will be fancying their chances considering they have not lost to Al Nassr since December 2021. Al Za’eem won the AFC Champions League in 2022 which also led them to qualify for the Club World Cup. Despite losing to Real Madrid they put up a good fight. Al Hilal has had a good summer transfer window as they added Neves, Koulibaly and Savic to their ranks. Al Za’eem may be favorites going into this game but Al Nassr must not be ruled out.
Can Ronaldo guide Al Nassr to victory
Al Nassr face a mighty task of winning their first Arab Club Champions Cup as they face off against bitter rivals Al Hilal. Cristiano Ronaldo has the chance to put his name in Arab history books if he guides Al Nassr to victory against Al-Hilal. Ronaldo has been in good scoring form for Al Nassr by scoring four goals in five appearances as he is the top scorer of the competition. Al Alami have added a few big names from Europe to their teams after signing Mane, Telles and Brozovic. Al Nassr was a few points off of victory in the Saudi Pro League last year.
