- Competition: Saudi Pro League
- Date: 25th May 2025
- Kick-off: 19:00 UK / 20:00 CEST
- Venue: KINGDOM ARENA
The second and third teams in Saudi Arabia’s top flight will go head to head on Monday evening when Al Hilal welcome Al Qadasiyah to the Kingdom Arena.
Al Hilal have failed to defend their title, with eight points separating them from first place ahead of the final game but a win on Monday would provide huge motivation ahead of the Club World Cup. Last time out, the Blue Waves travelled to Al Wehda looking to continue their impressive run of form, having won their previous three games. It looked like Mohammad Al-Shalhoub’s team would suffer their sixth defeat of the season, but Saša Živec had other plams as the former Lazio man scored an equaliser in stoppage time to earn his team a point.
Al Qadasiyah will not be able to leapfrog their hosts in the standings with a win, but this will be a huge test ahead of their King Cup of Champions final encounter with Al Ittihad. The visitors are on a run of four consecutive wins, scoring 11 times and they kept a clean sheet in their only away game in that spell.
Al Hilal vs Al Qadasiyah Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
Al Hilal have scored in all 33 of their league games so far this season and that run is not expected to end on Monday. Across all competitions, the hosts boast at least two goals in seven of their last eight matches and only one of those fixtures produced fewer than three goals.
Al Qadasiyah are also in great form offensively at the moment and they have scored at least one goal in each of their last eight Saudi Pro League games.

Al Qadasiyah team news
Al Qadasiyah didn’t register any injuries in the win over Al Orobah last time out, so it won’t be a surprise if head coach Míchel maintains his starting eleven.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s brace in that game took his tally for the campaign to 17 and the former Arsenal man is expected to lead the line on Monday.
