Al Raed and Al-Hilal are contending with significant developments and absences within their squads.
For Al Raed, the absence of Mohammed Fouzair, last season's top scorer, has been keenly felt, as he has yet to feature in any matches this season. However, there is hope for his return in the upcoming fixture, which could provide a much-needed boost to Al Raed's attacking options. Additionally, there are potential changes in the attacking lineup, with Raed Al-Ghamdi potentially being given a starting role after his recent appearances off the bench.
Meanwhile, Al-Hilal has received news of Neymar's delayed debut, as the Brazilian superstar continues to struggle with an ankle injury sustained in February. This setback postpones his highly anticipated first appearance for the team, depriving Al-Hilal of his considerable attacking prowess. Furthermore, the absence of Kalidou Koulibaly, who is sidelined due to injury following the Arab Club Champions Cup final, leaves a void in Al-Hilal's defensive line for an estimated three to four weeks.
These developments underscore the challenges faced by both teams as they prepare for their upcoming clash. With key players missing and potential adjustments to lineups, the match promises to be an intriguing battle as both sides seek to secure a positive result amidst these setbacks.
