Al Ahli's ambition before the season was the fight for the title. That ship has sailed as the team doesn't have much chance of being better than third in the Saudi Pro League.

In this round 27 match, Al Ahli is facing one of the teams from the lower part of the rankings.

Player to Watch: Firas Al-Buraikan

With all the high-profile signings Al Ahli SC had last summer, one of the domestic players has been their best scorer. That honor belongs to Firas Al-Buraikan who scored ten league goals in 24 matches this campaign while adding six assists.

Interestingly, Al-Buraikan went through Al Nassr's youth program but never got a real chance of breaking into the main squad. He moved to Al Ahli at the beginning of last season and never looked back. The 23-year-old striker has played 36 times for the Saudi Arabia national team scoring six goals.
