Al Khaleej – Al Ahli preview: Recent form, news, and possible lineups
Read all about these two teams ahead of their upcoming duel here, includin the most likely Al Khaleej vs Al Ahli lineups:
Al Khaleej
Last season Al Khaleej was among the teams that came close to being relegated, finishing with just three points more than the first team in the relegation zone. The new season didn't start much better for them either since Al Khaleej lost their first-round match to Al Feiha and given that their next opponent is Al Ahli, they might end up starting the season with a couple of loses.
Al Khaleej predicted lineup:
Sehic – Al-Owdah, Al-Shanqiti, Lopez, Rebocho – Jung, Al-Sumairi – Al Abdan, Rodrigues, Martins – Al Salem
Al Ahli
After splashing the cash to sing a lot of big names during the summer transfer window, Al Ahli came into the season as one of the main favourites to win the title, despite the fact that they spent the season before in Division One. In any case, Al Ahli started the new Saudi Pro League season strongly, with a 3-1 win over Al Hazem.
Al Ahli predicted lineup:
Mendy – Majrashi, Ibanez, Hindi, Alioski – Aljohani, Kessie – Mahrez, Boudebouz, Saint-Maximin – Firmino
Starting Lineups

Al Ahli Jeddah
Player to Watch: Roberto Firmino
After signing for Al Ahli during the summer transfer window, Roberto Firmino made an immediate impact in his league debut for the team and he is our player to watch in this match as well.
It is hard to look past the experienced striker after he scored a hat-trick in the first round of Saudi Pro League, so Al Khaleej will have to keep a close eye on Firmino in this duel.
