The 2023-24 season of the Saudi Professional League kicks off on Saturday, June 12, adding to the excitement of the summer transfer market.
The league has been on the radar of soccer fans since record-breaker Cristiano Ronaldo moved to the league midway through last season. This summer, the league began a full-scale superstar recruitment drive, starting with 2022 Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema and adding N’Golo Kante, Robert Firmino, Sadio Mane, and Riyad Mahrez.
Al Ahli vs Al Hazem kicks off the 2023-24 Saudi Pro League season tomorrow (Saturday, December 12) at 3am and is available on SPOTV Prime and SPOTV NOW.
Al Ahli will be highlighted by the presence of Riyad Mahrez, Robert Firmino, Edouard Mendy and Alain Saint-Maximilien, all of whom have played for different Premier League clubs.
The most anticipated match in the first round of the Saudi Pro League for the 2023-24 season will be the clash between Al Etihad and Al Nasr on Tuesday, May 15, with a 3 a.m. kickoff.
Since the appointment of ‘Liverpool legend’ Steven Gerrard as manager, Al Etihad have added former Liverpool captain midfielder Jordan Henderson and Lyon striker Mousa Dembele. Can Al Etihad, who haven’t won the league since 1987, show a different side under Gerrard?
Al Nasr, who finished second last season despite having Ronaldo, strengthened this summer with the signings of Mane, Marcelo Brozovic, and Alex Telles. It will be interesting to see if Al Nasr can capitalize on their ‘storming recruitment’ as they challenge for the league title for the first time in five years, while Ronaldo, who scored 14 goals last season despite joining midway through the season, will be the top scorer in the Saudi Pro League.온라인바카라
Al Ittihad start the season in a stronger position with the addition of Benzema, Kante, and Fabinho. Defending champions Al Ittihad, coached by Nuno Santu, who previously coached Son Heung-min at Tottenham Hotspur, have brought in three players with experience of winning big in the UEFA Champions League to challenge for a second consecutive year. In their quest to return to the top of the table, Al Ahly will host Al Rahda in the opening match of the competition on Tuesday, October 15 at 0:00am.
Featuring a host of soccer superstars in action, all key Saudi Pro League matches from the 2023-24 season will be streamed exclusively on sports OTT service SPOTV NOW. Live TV coverage will be available on SPOTV ON, SPOTV ON2 and SPOTV Prime.
