Al Ettifaq vs Al Hilal prediction, odds and how to watch

Al Hilal tore Al Taawoun apart in the Saudi Pro League, winning 6-0 with Gabriel Martinelli scoring a hat-trick and Ollie Watkins netting twice in a performance that was clinical from the first whistle.

Al-Qadsiah led twice and created the better chances throughout, but Al Ettifaq refused to lie down and levelled through Jordan Larsson in the 85th minute to earn a share of the spoils in a frantic Saudi Pro League encounter.

Al Hilal were ruthless in Riyadh, scoring four times before half-time to put Al Khaleej to the sword in a 5-1 Saudi Pro League hammering. Milinkovic-Savic, Summerville, and Theo Hernández were among the scorers in a first half that left the hosts with nowhere to hide.

Al Ettifaq bossed Al Faisaly from start to finish in the Saudi Pro League, racking up 15 shots to three, but could not find the goal their pressure deserved. A point each, and neither side will be satisfied.

Al Draih put three past Al Ettifaq without reply in the Saudi Pro League, with Darwin Núñez scoring twice and Adil Boulbina adding a second-half goal to seal a convincing away win.

Al Hilal's five-match winning run came to a stunning halt at home as NEOM SC claimed a 2-0 victory, with Kalidou Koulibaly's own goal and a Amadou Koné strike doing the damage. It was a night where Al Hilal's standards slipped badly, and NEOM made them pay.

Al Hilal arrive at Al Riyadh on Friday in the kind of form that makes you feel sorry for whoever is next on the fixture list. Al Riyadh are next on the fixture list.

Richard Hughes has left Liverpool as sporting director after just 15 months to join Al Hilal, walking out with 21 months still on his contract weeks after sanctioning a £200m summer rebuild. His exit compounds instability at Anfield's decision-making core as FSG faces a second major leadership vacancy in barely a year.
