26.04.2023, 18:00
In the upcoming 29th match of the crucial Saudi Pro League showdown, Al-Hilal will continue their charge for the Saudi Pro League glory as they were eliminated from the AFC Champions League semi-finals by Al-Ain earlier this week. Al-Fateh on the other hand is fresh off a 3-1 defeat against Al-Raed in their last league game. Al-Hilal must continue their dominance in the league as they are still yet to lose a league game this season and we doubt that Fateh can match Fateh’s strength here. As always, we anticipate total dominance from Al-Hilal in this game, with the team being the clear favorite for the win.
