Sat Nov 30 17:02:50 UTC 2024: **Al Shabab to Face Injury-Hit Al Hilal in Crucial Saudi Pro League Clash**
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – High-flying Al Shabab will host defending champions Al Hilal in a highly anticipated Saudi Pro League match on Saturday, November 30th. Kick-off is scheduled for 5:00 PM UK time. The match will be a clash of titans, but both teams face significant injury concerns.
Al Shabab, currently sitting in the top four, will be without several key players including goalkeeper Kim Seung-gyu, Yannick Ferreira-Carrasco, Aberrazzak Hamdallah, and Fahad Al Muwallad due to injury.
Al Hilal, whose 46-game unbeaten league run ended last weekend against Al Khaleej (3-2), are also facing a major injury crisis. Star players Neymar, Ruben Neves, and Malcom are all sidelined. The Brazilian trio’s absences leave a considerable gap in Al Hilal’s attacking prowess. The team will also be facing some recent inconsistencies after suffering the loss to Al Khaleej and drawing 1-1 with Al Sadd in the AFC Champions League.
Despite Al Hilal’s recent struggles and injury list, the pre-match prediction suggests a high-scoring affair, with both teams expected to find the back of the net. The game will be available for UK viewers on DAZN (subject to scheduling) and for US viewers on Fox (subject to scheduling), with streaming options available on respective digital platforms and Fubo.
