Watkins and Keno lead Al Hilal lineup surprises
Al Hilal Saudi team made surprising changes to their lineup during the classic match against Al Ahli, as English forward Ollie Watkins was absent from the starting lineup and was kept on the bench, despite reports indicating he would be part of the starting XI. Coach Szymon Inzaghi also decided to keep veteran midfielder Mohammed Kanno on the bench, choosing Nasser Al-Dosari to partner with him in the midfield. The formation focused on excluding defender Hassan Tambakti after his recovery from injury, relying instead on Kalidou Koulibaly, Ali Laagamdi, Mohamed Mahzari, and Theo Hernandez in defense. These adjustments come as Al Hilal holds second place in the league table with 9 points, while Al Ahli leads the standings with 6 points.
