The Brazilian attacker has been very consistent since his move to Al Hilal. He is very versatile and can operate both as a right winger and an attacking midfielder. He has an excellent passing range and can unlock any defence. Malcom scored one goal and provided four assists in his previous five games.

Craig Goodwin (Al Wehda)

The Australian brings a lot to the table for Al Wehda. In 14 appearances in the Saudi Pro League, he has scored four goals and provided three assists. He presses from the front and helps recover the ball quickly. He also excels at creating chances for his teammates and will play an important role against Al Hilal.
