Read about these two teams ahead of their upcoming duel, including our predicted Al Raed vs Al Ittihad lineups:

Al Raed

Last season Al Raed finished ninth in the Saudi Pro League standings, which was pretty much in line with the team's expectations. The same goes for the upcoming season as well, with the team hoping for a stable, mid-table finish. To help them reach it, Al Raed brought a few new players, including Mamadou Loum from Porto.

Al Raed predicted lineup:

Moreira – Al Jayzani, Al Rajeh, Santos, Sunbul – Loum, Sayoud, Al Farhad, Al Beshe – Tavares, Mitrita

Al Ittihad

The defending champions of Saudi Arabia will have a tough task this season with many of their biggest rivals bringing in big names from Europe, but Al Ittihad did bring a few of big names of their own. The biggest one is clearly Karim Benzema, but they also signed Fabinho, Kante, and Jota, among others.

Al Ittihad predicted lineup:

Grohe – Bamsaud, Sharahili, Hawsawi, Shanqeeti – Fabinho, Kante, Al Farhan, Jota – Benzema, Romarinho

Player to Watch: Karim Benzema

While there are a few interesting players to watch in this game, especially in Al Ittihad's team, the biggest story is the debut of Karim Benzema, the reigning winner of Ballon d'Or.

The French forward has been in great form last season in Real Madrid and he is certainly the biggest name to come to Saudi Pro League this summer, so he is our player to watch in this game.
