Jorge Jesus’ men emerged victorious in their previous meeting against Al Kholood.

Al Hilal are all set to host Al Kholood on matchday 22 of the Saudi Pro League 2024-25 season. Jorge Jesus’ men are defending the league title but their form is starting to falter. They have won 15 matches in 21 league games so far after which they are in the second spot. Al Kholood are in 11th place, having won seven games in the same number of matches.

Al Hilal will be at home but they will not be all confident. Their last few matches have not ended in their favour resulting in dropping points. Al Ittihad are comfortably sitting at the top and also defeated Al Hilal in the intense clash. Jorge Jesus’ men will be looking to come back to winning ways.

Al Kholood will be confident even after being away from home as they won their last league game against Al Wehda. It was a close game but Al Kholood scored a goal in the first half and later defended well and did not let their oppositions score which helped them to win. This clash is not going to be an easy one for the visitors.
