Nov 28th features a match where Abha and Al Hilal will play a match in Mahalah in a clash of the Pro League. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 18 degrees, a perfect day for football. Abha is fresh off their 2-0 shutout win against Al Ahli. Mitchell Te Vrede struck first for Abha in the 75th minute, then Saad Bguir added another in the 85th minute on a penalty kick In the end, Al Ahli was frustrated by Abha’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Abha ended the match with the shutout victory. Abha looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 6 of their last 10, while 4th placed Al Hilal is fresh off their 2-0 shutout win against Dhamk. André Carrillo struck first for Al Hilal in the 56th minute on a feed from Nasser Al Dawsari, then Aljuwayr added another in the 3rd minute of the second half’s stoppage time In the end, Dhamk was frustrated by Al Hilal’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Al Hilal ended the match with the shutout victory. Al Hilal should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 20 points in their last 10 matches.
