Player to Watch
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (Al Hilal)
The Serbian has dominated the league this season with his darting runs from midfield often making it a difficult task for opponents to mark him. He has scored 10 goals for the team this season and provided 8 assists. His partnership with the front three has been excellent, as well as his ability to cause havoc in the opposition’s box from set-pieces and corners.
Cristian Tello (Al Fateh)
In the last couple of matches, Cristian Tello has been instrumental in the team’s success by scoring 10 goals and assisting two others. In addition to bringing creativity to the side, Cristian Tello is often deploying from the left wing and can dribble past opponents easily. His trickery makes him hard to handle.
