Al Hilal Form

Al Hilal looked phenomenal in the AFC Champions League quarterfinal, humiliating Gwangju 7-0, Aleksandar Mitrovic being man of the match with one goal and two assists.

As for their recent form in the Saudi League, Jorge Jesus’ side have slipped to 2nd place after winning just two of their last five appearances.

After a 3-1 home loss to Al Nassr in early April, Al Hilal were held to a 1-1 draw by Al Ettifaq, while ending the winless run with a 3-0 home win against Al Khaleej.

Last weekend, they won just a point against Al Shabab 2-2 at home, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Salem Al Dawsari finding the net.

Al Ahli Form

Al Ahli also cruised past the opposition in the AFC CL quarterfinals, outplaying Burinam United 3-0 with Riyad Mahrez, Galeno and Roberto Firmino appearing on the scoresheet in first half.

This was their fourth consecutive victory, previously beating Al Raed 2-0, Al Fayha 5-0 and Al Wehda 3-2 in the Saudi League, Ibanez scoring three goals in these encounters, while Mahrez and Ivan Toney scored two goals each.

Al Ahli are most likely out from the title race in Saudi Arabia, sitting in 4th place with a ten-point deficit from Al Ittihad.

Team News

Joao Cancelo is almost certain to miss this match for Al Hilal due to unknown injury.

Al Ahli have no injury or suspension concerns ahead of this clash.
