The Roshn Saudi League is set for an exhilarating conclusion on Monday night, as the final matches of the season will kick off across the Kingdom at 9 PM. While Al Ittihad has already secured the championship title, the last round promises to deliver compelling stories and intense competition.
As teams fight for crucial positions, the stakes are high for several clubs. Al Hilal, currently in second place, must secure a victory against Al Qadsiah to guarantee their spot in the 2025-26 AFC Champions League Elite. This match is not just about points; revenge will be on Al Hilal’s mind after a previous defeat to Al Qadsiah earlier this season.
Meanwhile, Al Nassr is also in contention for an AFC Champions League spot, needing a win against Al Fateh coupled with an Al Hilal loss to ensure their place. Al Qadsiah, for their part, aims to finish strong by potentially securing a spot in the upcoming season’s AFC Champions League Two with a victory.
The relegation battle presents another gripping narrative. Al Orobah’s recent penalty overcomes means they have been relegated, leaving Al Wehda and Al Okhdood to vie for survival. Al Wehda, currently with 33 points, can secure their top-flight status with a win at Al Ettifaq, while Al Okhdood must beat Al Khaleej to stay alive in the league.
In terms of individual accolades, Cristiano Ronaldo leads the golden boot race as the RSL’s top scorer, with 24 goals. However, rising star Ivan Toney is close behind, just two goals adrift. The competition here is fierce, as established scorers like Karim Benzema and Abderrazak Hamdallah also remain in contention for the top marksman award.
Lastly, the assist title is on the line as well, with Moussa Diaby of Al Ittihad and Salem Al Dawsari of Al Hilal both boasting 14 assists this season. An exceptional final day could see one of them break the current record of 15 assists in a single season.
As the Roshn Saudi League wraps up for the 2024/25 season, fans are eagerly anticipating what promises to be an unforgettable night of football, filled with drama and excitement across all matches. This sense of anticipation hints at a bright future for the league and its players, showcasing both established talent and emerging stars in a continuously evolving landscape.
