Al Hilal Ready for Fifth Win Against Struggling Al-Najma

UNAIZAH, Saudi Arabia – Al Hilal will look to secure their fifth consecutive victory in the Saudi Professional League when they face Al Najma at Al-Najma Club Stadium on November 7, 2025.

Fresh off a 1-0 win against Al-Shabab, Al Hilal remains unbeaten in their last seven league matches, showcasing their strength in the current season. They currently sit four points behind league leaders and could potentially climb to second place with a win, should second-placed Al-Taawoun falter against Al-Fateh.

Al Najma, on the other hand, is struggling at the bottom of the table without a point to their name. The newly promoted team is still reeling from a 3-1 defeat to Al-Qadisiyah in their opener, followed by a 2-1 setback against Al-Okhood. They have lost seven straight matches and are yet to score a win in the league.

Mario Silva, the head coach of Al Najma, is facing mounting pressure as his team has failed to capitalize on their chances. Despite having no injury concerns, Al Najma’s form remains concerning; they have conceded 16 goals while only managing to score five.

Ali Jasim has been a bright spot for Al Najma, having performed well in their last match. Meanwhile, Al Hilal’s Darwin Nunez, a new signing from Liverpool, could pose a significant threat after scoring three goals this season, including one in the league and another in the AFC Champions League.

The upcoming match promises to be an uphill battle for Al Najma, who will need to find their footing quickly if they hope to avoid another loss against the formidable Al Hilal.

As the teams prepare for this highly anticipated clash, fans are eager to see if Al Hilal can maintain their winning streak and if Al Najma can finally turn their season around.
