December 25th features a match where Al Hilal will host Al Fateh in a clash of the Pro League. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, a perfect day for football. Al Hilal is fresh off their 0-2 loss against Al Nassr. Vincent Aboubakar scored the first goal for Al Nassr in the 39th minute, then Anderson Talisca added another in the 90th minute on a feed from Vincent Aboubakar In the end, Al Hilal couldn’t muster any offence and Al Nassr ran away with the shutout win. Al Hilal is looking for direction having earned 15 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 12th placed Al Fateh, recorded a 5-5 draw against Dhamk. Christian Cueva struck first for Al Fateh in the 3rd minute on a feed from Boushal, but El Arbi Hillel Soudani got the equalizer for Dhamk in the 11th minute . Al Fateh is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Al Hilal won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Both Ivan Santini and Christian Cueva have been the hottest scorers for Al Fateh in the last 5 each having scored 3 goals each. Al Dawsari and Musab Fahz Aljuwayr are the top scorers for Al Hilal in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
