Seven games in 28 days highlights demanding schedule
At the start of the football season in Saudi Arabia, there was intense pressure, as clubs played six rounds of matches within just 25 days—an average of one game every 3.8 days. Additionally, Al-Ahli and Al-Hilal participated in extra matches at the continental level. In contrast, major European leagues only held three to four matches during the same period, due to their reliance on gradual buildup of physical effort and international breaks to reorganize priorities. This rapid pace in Saudi Arabia has led to muscle injuries among players and a decline in some clubs' results, notably Al-Ahli, which suffered three consecutive defeats, and Al-Hilal, which lost to Neom after playing four matches in ten days. This highlights the need to organize match schedules in a way that considers both physical and technical aspects to prevent injuries and deterioration of performance.
