The quarter-final clash between Al Hilal and Al Taawoun in the King's Cup promises to be a highly competitive encounter, featuring two top-performing teams from the Saudi Pro League 2023-24 season. Al Hilal, currently leading the league, faces a tough test against Al Taawoun, who sits in third place.
In the previous round, Al Hilal secured a convincing 3-0 victory against Al-Hazm, with Ruben Neves converting from the penalty spot and Aleksandar Mitrovic scoring a brace. Mitrovic has been a standout performer for Al Hilal, making him one of the best signings in the Saudi Pro League this season. With an impressive tally of 21 goals in 22 games across all competitions, including 14 goals in his last 10 starts, Mitrovic poses a significant goal-scoring threat. His recent goal against Al Taawoun in the 81st minute underscores his impact in crucial moments.
On the other side, Al Taawoun secured a win against Al Wehda in the last round with two early goals. Leading their attacking force is Joao Pedro, the 30-year-old Brazilian forward who joined the Saudi club in the summer. Pedro has already netted seven goals in 11 league games and has scored three goals in the last three matches. His goal-scoring form makes him a potent threat to Al Hilal's defense.
The clash between these two high-scoring teams, featuring Mitrovic and Pedro, is likely to be a captivating battle. Fans can expect an exciting match with both sides aiming to progress in the King's Cup, adding another layer of intensity to their already impressive performances in the Saudi Pro League.
