Players to watch out for:

Nizar Mahmoud Al-Rashdan (Al Zawraa)

The Jordanian international is having an excellent start to his season so far. The 26-year-old midfielder is known for his relentless pressing and the ability to feed forward passes to the attacks. He also makes intelligent runs into the final third, which helps him rack up goals and assists.

João Félix (Al Nassr)

Due to his talent, João Felix was once deemed to be the successor of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Portuguese national team. However, despite not enjoying many highs in his professional career, João Felix has always shown his immense quality on the pitch. Along with his overall gameplay, João Felix is also enjoying an incredible season in front of the goal.
