    Al Ittihad will play host to Al Kholood in the Saudi Pro League at King Abdullah Sports City on Saturday evening. Al Ittihad’s title defence did not go anything like they would have hoped, as they only managed 55 points in their 34 league games, which saw them end last season in fifth place. The Tigers played four pre-season matches last month and recorded two wins, a draw, and a loss. However, they did beat Al Jazira 4-1 in the preliminary stage of the AFC Champions League on Tuesday. The hosts took 31 points from their 17 home league games last season. They have not lost to this opponent at home since Al Kholood were promoted to the top flight.

      Al Ittihad begin the season as clear favourites after appointing Jens Wissing as their new head coach. They disappointed last season by finishing fifth, but their squad still possesses enough quality to challenge at the top end of the table. Players such as Steven Bergwijn, Houssem Aouar and Moussa Diaby provide significant attacking quality. Al Kholood narrowly avoided relegation last season and will be hoping for improvement under former Oxford United manager Des Buckingham. However, their squad remains limited compared with Al Ittihad, particularly in terms of their foreign-player options.

      Al-Ittihad begin their 2026/27 Saudi Pro League campaign at home to Al-Kholood, with the hosts expected to have the advantage at King Abdullah Sports City. Al-Ittihad will be looking to make a stronger start under new manager Jens Wissing after a disappointing fifth-place finish last season. The home side possess considerably greater individual quality, although consistency remains an important concern. Players such as Steven Bergwijn, Houssem Aouar and Moussa Diaby give Al-Ittihad considerable attacking potential, and they should have enough quality to create problems for an Al-Kholood side that narrowly avoided relegation last season. Al-Kholood have appointed former Oxford United manager Des Buckingham and will hope his arrival can help them establish greater stability. Nevertheless, the difference in squad strength and home advantage makes Al-Ittihad the more convincing side on paper. Prediction: Al-Ittihad to win.

    • Union St. Gilloise welcome Zulte Waregem for their second Jupiler Pro League fixture of the season with both teams already on three points. Union’s 5-1 victory at Westerlo provided an explosive start to their league campaign and continued a run in which their attacking threat has rarely disappeared. They had previously beaten Lille 2-1, drawn 1-1 with Club Brugge and played out a 3-3 draw with Bodo/Glimt before losing the return encounter 3-2 after extra time, meaning they have scored in each of their last five matches. That sequence demonstrates how effectively Union can increase the tempo and turn possession into sustained attacking pressure, with 13 goals scored across those five fixtures. Their willingness to commit numbers forward can leave space behind the ball, as shown by the six goals conceded across the two Bodo/Glimt games, but at home they should again look to dictate territory.

    • Kasimpasa and Trabzonspor begin the new Super Lig season looking for a cleaner start after both endured inconsistent finishes to the previous campaign. Kasimpasa closed their campaign by beating Galatasaray 1-0, giving them a second victory across their final five league matches after an earlier 1-0 success against Alanyaspor. Between those wins, they lost 2-3 away at Genclerbirligi, drew 1-1 with Kocaelispor and suffered a damaging 0-4 defeat at Basaksehir. Those performances showed a side capable of being disciplined when their defensive distances remain compact but far more vulnerable once opponents force the game into open transitions. Kasimpasa conceded seven goals across the defeats to Genclerbirligi and Basaksehir alone, so protecting central spaces will be essential against Trabzonspor.

    • Genclerbirligi and Fenerbahce begin the new Super Lig season with the hosts hoping to carry an encouraging finish from the previous campaign into a demanding opening fixture. Genclerbirligi ended the previous campaign impressively by winning 3-0 away at Trabzonspor, having already beaten Kasimpasa 3-2 in their preceding fixture. Those victories followed a 0-1 defeat at Fatih Karagumruk, a 1-0 home success over Kocaelispor and a narrow 1-2 loss against Galatasaray, giving them three wins from their closing five league matches. The six goals scored across their final two fixtures showed how dangerous Genclerbirligi can become when transitions open and they are able to attack space quickly. Their challenge here will be finding those opportunities without sacrificing defensive organisation, as Fenerbahce should command much more possession. Recent meetings underline that difficulty, with Genclerbirligi losing 3-1 in both encounters with Fenerbahce last season.
